For the money you've spent you might as well have fit the ST150 rear calipers, in addition you only need new stub axles, brake hoses, handbrake cable. So much easier to service.

Possibly but i want to do that on my track fiesta this is just my daily

Great video mate. I've got a mk6 1.6tdci and watching your videos has given me the confidence to just have a go at replacing things. I have 207,000 miles rn and the rear drums are next after the front end suspension and lower wishbones. What were the drums you got? Can't get a straight answer out of Autodoc, too many options for them all to be right 😅

[@mclaren_media9145]

Yeah thats great to hear! And they are just pagid think from GSF or euros cant remember now i ordered them ages before making this video but having the bearings already fitted saved so much time

[@tonymccarthy9273]

i had a problem with my handbrake cable on my mk6 fiesta , the nylon grommet wore out and it wouldn't hold in place, i just had to replace a small part of the cable , thanks for the videos, please do film your ongoing fix of your handbrake,

[@mclaren_media9145]

Yeah i feel all the components of mine are knackered so gonna do the full cable

[@norm4260]

Did you tension the handbrake cable from inside after fitting the drums? Looks like a new one is needed though if the anchor on the axle is damaged.

[@mclaren_media9145]

Yeah cable is as tight as it can go and still istn quite holding the car so think new cable is needed
