As above, how do I go about it without damamging the cable?

 

Easy to remove m8

Why do you think you will damage it???????

On the front of the beam is the adjuster,you need to slacken this right off as your first job,then all you do is un hook the cable off the calipers,push out the plastic cable guides which sit in the trailing arms,and then remove a small circlip type thing that sits right underneath the handbrake lever under the car,this can be abit fiddly cause its right above the exhaust

 

don't forget the little clips on the calipers either

the cables are normally stuck fast at this point so just give it a liberal coat of wd40 and let it sit for a while
and when it coems to removing them, give them a good hard tugging

 

i cant get my cables off my 4wd calipers at all,cant pull the cable forward enough to unhook it off the lug on the caliper lever,anyone know what im doing wrong?

 

Have you slackened adjuster right off???????

Cable then needs to be pushed backwards off the caliper arm

 

i have slackened them off alright,ill check tomorrow can i slacken em anymore

 

Sound stupid but is the handbrake off ?? If so maybe a pair of pillars and pull the cable towards the calipers.
