[QUOTE="baj25, post: 359984, member: 16034"] I had an MOT advisory on handbrake last year, so before test this year I roughed up the linings (they were glazed) and same on inside of drum. I found an easy way to grease the cables was to disconnect at lever end, pull through drum backplate as far as they would go (mine wouldn’t come all the way out), clean up cable and slap grease on while pushing the cable back in. It made a big difference, handbrake actually holds on medium slopes now. Otherwise, procedure is pretty much as you describe. HTH, Bri [/QUOTE]
