Yeah that end was a bear of a thing, but mostly due to trying to get the sequence of things right, once I got that sorted the second side was done in 5-10 mins.
Back off drum adjusters as far as you can
Remove adjuster spring (the smaller/lighter one)
Remove return spring (the bigger one)
Remove top shoe
Remove park brake actuator
To install you need to back off the tension on the cable so you start at the back with some slack.
Remove rear seat (lower section)
Lift carpet up to get to balancer
Detach balancer from handle cable (this will give you slack in the cables to the drums)
Hook park brake actuator to cable
Install top shoe
Install return spring (the bigger one)
Install drum adjuster
Install adjuster spring (the smaller/lighter one)
Back inside the car use multigrips to pull the handbrake cable as far backward(towards rear of car) as possible, then lock them to stop it returning to its normal position
Then get the balancer and leaver it as far forward(front of the car) as you can with a screw driver
Reattach the cables between the balancer and handbrake
Just finished installing the billet technology catch can. Found a little hole in the strut bar and used that to attach the bracket. I can still put the engine cover on.
