Hello all,
I ran into a problem after converting my 87 GN from the powermaster brake system over to a vacuum system. As i was bleeding the rear drums the wheel cylinder busted. Then I attempted to remove the wheel cylinder without knowledge of the clamp holding it on the back of the backing plate thus causing me to warp the backing plate. I figured i might as well replace both wheel cylinders and now i am ready to tackle this project with a mechanic buddy.
I have new backing plates (2)
drum brake kit (2)
brake fluid
After work today i will check to see if i have a posi or limlited slip in the rear end. (Can someone tell which fluid is best for a daily driver for each)
Do i need a special tool to remove the axle or what size socket i will need. Also if anyone know the torque specs.
Thank you all in advance for your help
