[Fot] Rear Wheel cylinder removal - spring clips

[fubog1 at aol.com]

The bottom one (next to the backing plate) is convex side facing the 
plate. It has little folds on the end that lock into notches on the 
ends of the center plate. The small outer clip has the ends folded up 
also. To get it apart either pry off the small clip, and most likely 
destroy it, or pry up the ends of the center plate & lever it and/or 
the lower plate out.
When refitting, fit the lower & outer plate (same direction), fit the 
handbrake lever, and then jam in the center plate between the two, in 
the opposite direction, until the lugs lock. Make sure it slides, fit 
the boot, brake pipe, etc.

Subject: [Fot] Rear Wheel cylinder removal - spring clips

Hi gang, I need to remove a leaking rear wheel cylinder that's held in
place by metal spring clips.  I've never removed these things before
and It's probably easy, if you've done it before.  After jamming a
screwdriver into my hand, I'll ask you all this question.
Can you please describe the method of removing these pesky things?

~Steve
