james750 Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Ive started doing my rear parking brake cables. i pulled the drum and found where the cable connects but have no clue from there on, i think i need to remove the rear brake shoe. But i don't know how. any info would be of great help, if anyone has pics (with descriptions) or a how to it would be of help as well. As always, thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james750 Posted June 13, 2008 Author Share Posted June 13, 2008 yeah, i used search, but that doesnt answer my question, i know how its hooked up, i just don't know how to remove it. do i need to remove the shoe? how do i disconnect the cable from the assembly? and if i do need to remove the shoe, how do i do it?

MiNi Beast Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Pull the drum off, take a look and it should be hooked up on the bottom of the drum. Then may need to loosen the adjuster on the shoes but then you can hook the cable back up onto the shoe clip thingy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james750 Posted June 13, 2008 Author Share Posted June 13, 2008 the hookup is behind the shoes, not on the drum. How do u loosen the adjuster on the shoes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiNi Beast Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 REAR BRAKE SHOES Removal 1) Raise and support vehicle. Remove wheels and brake drum. Remove "U" clip and washer from parking brake lever pivot pin. Place Wheel Cylinder Clamp (J-8002) over wheel cylinder. 2) Remove primary and secondary shoe return springs, holddown spring and retainers and pins. See Fig. 7 or 8. Remove selfadjuster lever, adjuster and adjuster spring from brake shoes. 3) Remove brake shoes. Disconnect parking brake cable from parking brake lever, and remove lever. get a FSM here... http://www.greatlakesxj.com/tech.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
