So my spacers came in with my extended studs for my rear,
I raised my car, removed the wheel, found my 2 screws to insert in the available location to removed the rotor. as I kept screwing away the rotor was moving out but it was coming off. than I noticed I had my Ebrakes up !!!! I knew from the amount of screwing I did I had to damage something inside. I released my ebreaks and the pressure was releases and rotor came off along with these: I was so mad at myself, so I continued with the process, the other side was done successfully and noticed that those parts came from here: I knew that was a crucial damage... got in my car after I was done and break pad when pressed just sunk straight down with no pressure.. stepped on it a few times and still the same.. now I have no brakes and looks like I will need a new driver side rear drum setup.. ? -------------------- 94' Celica GT Manual |

Drum brakes are prob the most difficult as *uck brakes to work on. It still takes me several tries to get all the springs back on right adjust the brakes right and then the E-brake and then drive around take the drum back out and check to make sure the shoes aren't holding the drums down or the wheel cylinders are leaking. PITA.
