How do I remove the rear brake drum to replace the brake shoes? Do I need to remove the soft alloy cap in the centre of the drum, and then.... ?
Cheers :)

.....remove the 32mm nut beneath the cap. If necessary deadjust the handbrake and the drum SHOULD tap off.

Cheers all for the replies :) I went to the local library and looked at the Haynes.
It says the alloy cap is sacrificial and MUST be replaced, as is the one-shot axle nut beneath, and rubber seal :(
Also, it says the nut must be torqued up to 148lb/ft !
So, it looks like NEXT Saturday, after I've sourced all the bits....
What a STUPID arrangement!

I wouldn't worry about the seal which is on the stub behind the drum, unless it is split. You can get it from Peugeot seperately, otherwise it comes in the wheel bearing kit. And yes the nut has to be renewed and peened to lock it on to the stub. It and the cap don't cost very much from Pug.
