How do I re-assemble brake/wheel bracket unit after cleaning it? See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J9YK3ewvteI on adjusting the cable. Took apart red brake/wheel unit and cleaned the inside as per the other person's comment on you tube. The brake is working better now the inside is clean but now having trouble attaching it to the frame again (can't get it lined up and screwed on without it slipping). I would take the left side apart (carefully!) to see how it was put together but the screw is so tight on that side I can't undo it. I'm now looking for instructions on how to get it back on. I have a 2006/2007 model. Any help would be appreciated

Unhook the lower retracting spring from the front brake shoe to disconnect it. Spread the shoes apart at the bottom to remove the adjusting screw, the screw's retracting spring and the adjuster lever. Remove the front brake shoe.

Pull the parking brake cable spring back with diagonal cutting pliers, grip the cable with the pliers without cutting it, unhook the cable from the parking brake lever and remove the rear brake shoe with the lever.

Disconnect the parking brake lever from the rear shoe by spreading the retaining clip with a screwdriver and removing the clip and its spring washer.

Step 4 Pull the parking brake cable spring back with diagonal cutting pliers, grip the cable with the pliers without cutting it, unhook the cable from the parking brake lever and remove the rear brake shoe with the lever.
