gatherd that much lol but drivers side drum seems to be well and truly bedded on ( think at some point car has been round a lappost as this side of the car has all the problems and has been sprayed again but very poorly.

Normally by the time you notice the bearing has failed its done much more expensive damage to the rest of the axle

i got it as a project car swapped my ps3 for it lol so unsure how long its been like it as i know its been off the road since dec2009 but torsion bar etc is to flexible etc so i was just replacing the lot anyway but cant get the damn rear drum off to get at the handbreak cable and i dont have a angle grinder either. reckon my big hammer will ever crack the casing ?

chop it and replace it as they can be bought for just 1 side.
i'd personaly replace both flexis and cables on a axle change even more so if the cars been stood since 2009
