Hi Lyndon
What is it with Troopy handbrakes and Katherine.
Asked the exact same question on here recently for the Troopy.
We were referred to:

Tom Pfennig
Pfenning Motors
Shed 6, 44 Crawford St
KATHERINE
8972 1181

Highly recommend.

Cheers
John

Hi Lyndon

I have the workshop manual and have saved the relevant pages for you should you wish to send email address I can send them to you...either member message for email or on public post..up to you

I know you have tried but my guess is you may have come unstuck with the rear brake clearance perhaps?...

you never know the details may come in handy out of town one day

Thanks for the offer Buddy!
I can't get the wheel to turn inside the drum to begin the adjustment.

HA HA Steve
Thanks for the offer but it's a bit out the way at the moment.
We have been to Kakadu a couple of times, including just a few months back. Great place! We were lucky to get into Jim Jim just after it opened,which as you know was awsome this year as the falls were still flowing. That plung pool was huge! Great to swim across, was glad there were no lizards still there from the wet :)
Do you have a garage in Jabiru that you work out of?

Katherine Toyota is at 441 Victoria Hwy (about 3km from the main street) Ph. (08) 8972 1788.

If they can't do the job in 5 mins, I'll be shocked and dismayed.
