Hello Chaps,
I am trying to assemble the back brakes on my velocity using a drum brake assembly from a sierra.
Does anyone have picture of the assembly.
I cant get the handbrake cabke to fit and im not sure if ive swapped the n/s for the o/s when i stripped it.
Hope soem one can help

On the Sierra as original, the brake slave cylinders are at the top and the handbrake cable enters at the bottom running from front to rear. The back plates are handed but you should be able to sort them out from the above.
