After the new shaft popped out I went back and had a better look at the setup on the front. Noticed that it has been widened after the initial fabrication work and also wider than a standard cosworth




So a better look into the old shafts revealed they were much longer to fit he cars alterations and needed to be fitted back for the time being. So new CV's were bought and fitted to the old shafts and once repaired fitted back to the car










Once the driveshafts were sorted I turned my attentions to the rear brake callipers, the handbrake simply did not work. You applied it on flat ground and you could easily push the car by leaning on it!! So I set about taking the rear callipers apart to find out what was wrong

The strip down






The problem part, this is the spindle that turns to push the piston out when the handbrake is applied, completely seized so no wonder it wasn't working. It was like this on both sides!




The calliper in bits



One of the callipers built back up, this time we'll greased so hopefully it won't seize again anytime soon.



The car was then back in one bit and brought out of the garage



That's all for now, thanks for looking will get more photos up soon.
