Re: my rio verde project
Looks good man super match on the paint, you going to smooth the arches and boot, go for the complete Euro look?
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway

Re: my rio verde project
So time for a little update my handbrake cable snapped on me last week do looked and it was the passenger side. So now replaced yesterday just needs to be adjusted up the thing is i started to adjust it but only the drives side has gone tight where as the passengers side isn't really holding on the hand brake so need to sort it out

Re: my rio verde project
You need to adjust the passenger side at the hub but it's hard to explain, I'll try get some pics

Re: my rio verde project
Right I can't find any and works flat out so can't put mine on the lift lol
But anyway you've had the drum off so do you remember the bar that goes across around 3/4 of the way up, it's threaded and should of had a silver yoke at the very left of it
You take one nut of the wheel and shine a torch through the whole till you see the bar then get a screwdriver and use it to tighten the bar which in turn tightens the handbrake
If you don't understand I'll try get some pictures
