#1 of 2 Chevrolet Cavalier 1997 rear brake drum removal by maknine Aug 29, 2009 (3:28 am)
i am trying to figure out how to back the rear brakes off of this cavalier. i cant get the rotors off and have not yet come across a problem like this. there is no access hole behind the back to get at the adjuster to back them down. also there is no adjuster on the cable that i can find. any help would be great Replies to this message: claytonio (Dec 04, 2009 6:53 pm)

Replying to: maknine (Aug 29, 2009 3:28 am) You should be able to pull the drum away from the backplate enough to back the adjuster off. However, you cannot replace the wheel cylinders of these without removing the rear hubs....do yourself a favor and take it to a brake shop to do the job for you.
