hey, i'm trying to replace the rear shoes on my 91 dx, but after getting it all assembled, the hubs will not fit over the shoes on the driver side.

I dont know what to do.

alright update, I messed around with um and finally got the hubs on. Here is my problem now. If i pump the brakes rapidly pressure will build up, but the moment i stop pumping them and then press on the brakes, the pedal goes to the floor.

Help, i dont know what to do and this is my daily driver

its not hard to bleed the brakes, just get another person to simplify the process. Also, keep an eye on the master cylinder, to make sure you dont run out of brake fluid

heh, i'm broke as it is. But i guess spending the money and labor to replace brakes that didn't need replaced doesn't help either.

They were squeling bad, but got plenty of pad left :bloated: i dont know
