Hello all, I have a 1935 Mk1 Ruby and I am trying to refit the rear brake shoes having already done the fronts. To do the fronts I removed the hubs and found it reasonably easy.  However to do the rears I would prefer not to remove the hubs or mess with the halfshafts as they are tight not having been touched in the last twenty years or more.  My question is does anybody have a way of doing this without removal of hubs etc.  I last did this some years ago and am sure I did it without hub removal when the bottom spring was hooked on to both shoes and they were stretched in to place. When  now I try this the spring will not pass between fulcrum pin and the hub.  Any suggestions appreciated.

John Mason.
Would you believe it "Her who must be obeyed" refers to my Ruby as the toy.
