Need help with 5211 Brakes

[brussel2]

Left brake is hung up on 5211. Removed bolts from brake cylinder covers at rear, but feels like a spring or something is holding the plate on? How can this be removed.
Also, where are bleed screws for left foot brake and right foot beake located?
Thanks for your help !

hi the plate on the rearend is holding handbrake band do not take it off,bleder valve for the brakes are on top of portals where brake lines enter rearend.hope thise help you

I think you must remember to slacken the handbrake bands as these 'clamp' around the brake drum that you're trying to pull out.
as said bleed valves are next to pipe entries into hubs but you cannot see them if you have a cab in the way. poke your fingers into the portal around the brake pipe entry and youll find a tall valve sticking up about an inch or two away from the brake pipe.
