I finally decided to get all new shoes and cylinder for my 1982 s3 and I thought that as I am replacing it all why not do the adjusters at the same time ? And I have brought the new parts, I can't quite see how it goes together, but more importantly I cant see how to get the old ones off, the thing Is that I don't want to wreck them justincase the new ones don't fit properly or something silly like that, so could some one give me a hand please ? Also worth noting that there is not like 2 bolts that go into each other, on the front there is the cam with a small hole in and the other side a 1/2 inch bolt going through
Thanks ben
 
As stated above, you can see in my first pici where I have ground off the swaging that held the snail cam.
Second shows the new ones screwed on, the kit was from ebay for not a lot of money.
