    1994 Holden commodore VR
    Hi everyone,
    I'm going about removing the passenger side rear axle in a 1994 Holden VR wagon. Im not sure how to remove the handbrake so I can get to the 4 nuts that are needed to remove the axle.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated especially if you can post photos!

    Cheers,
    Julian

    i would suggest investing in a gregorys manual, then you'll have instructions and the correct diagram infront of you while dismantling and reassembling the brake components, don't really want to miss 1 small thing and have the assembly fall apart in the drum....

    You don't need to remove the handbrake shoes, just move them slightly so you can get a socket onto the nut through the hole in the axle.
