this has been quite the job, after removing the cone washers, fabricating the backing plate, found a brake cable from Hyster, had to machine the sheath end at the drum to fit the plate and all is good, assembled the left side.

now the rigth side, turns out there is a park brake on this side, it was cut flush with the backing plate, again everything rusted solid, this side the plate is badly deformed due to something getting between the plate and the machine frame.

have to figure a new cable thats a bit shorter first clean everything and straighten the backing plate

all fun
