Jack it up and remove the wheel.Remember to use an axle stand, leave the car in gear and block the front wheels as you will be applying a lot of force to undo the hub nut.
Use a screwdriver to prise off the cap in the centre of the drum then remove the hub nut. IIRC it's a 30mm nut and it's on tight! You'll need a long breaker bar or an impact gun to undo it.

I strongly recommend you buy a Haynes (or similar) workshop manual for this car before starting this job as there are a number of springs, clips, levers and adjusters involved. One part incorrectly fitted and the consequences- for others as well as yourself- are obvious.
Haynes books cost about £18 and are available in Halfords or most bookshops.

you have to mechanically deadjust handbrake cable after releasing normal way bang reasonable hard around around outer drum while rotating drum by hand also see if there are two threaded holes located on the front flat area of the drum if so insrt a bolt in both holes and turn equally untill drum is forced forward to the off position only do this providing drum rotates freely
