Roger,

 

As far as I can see they are the same. Moss only have one part number so It looks like they are.

 

I have another problem now. It would appear the handbrake expander is holding the shoes too far apart as I can't get the drum on and the shoe is about a centimetre away from the wheel cylinder piston.

 

I'm totally knackered struggling with the rear shoes. I'm about where I was at 0930 this morning and have had to stop before I fall over.

 

I'll ask the question about the rear shoes on another thread.

 

Oh, what fun ..

Mark,

 

Great help. I had it like that but thought there was too much cable on the brake side and not enough on the handbrake lever side.

 

Guess I'll be taking it all apart again in the morning,

 

Many thanks.
