Is there anything subtle involved with changing the rear drums+bearings on
'52 red 1.8 TDCI Focus? i.e any quirks to be aware of (funny seals etc)

My LH rear wheel bearing is starting to sing after 70k, so I though I would
replace the nasty rusty drum at the same time.

The rear hub nut should be torqued to 235Nm.
