adjusting rear shoes

[Anonymous]

i go a 1.3sr 86 model. I wanna ajust the rear shoes how do i go about it. i was readin in the haynesy and it says heres a nut which u turn to expand the shoes but i aint got one off these. So is there another way it can be do i bin told that ill av to take the drums of and djust somthin in there+ i got loads of handbrake travel i would adjust that but id rather do the rear shoes then see if he handbrake travel gets reduced. I though as the brakes are hydrulic (spelling) they should adjust themselves.:-/

they self ajust, there is a nut on a threaded bat that sits ontop of the rear axel more towards the drivers side, u can ajust this to tighten up the handbrake
