Is there a secret to getting the rear brake cylinders off? I allways have trouble because the drive shaft flange prevents the cylinder from moving out to clear the top so that it can be pulled out . I have just given up in disgust while I have a cup of coffee!! I thought about slackening the back plate bolts , but surely that can.t be needed !!

RE: rear brake cylinders
Having just done mine and having had that same cup of coffee i don`t think there is any secret, just gently prise them out with a screwdriver, they will come out, and a gentle tap with a hammer should see them back in.
