Rear Drum Brake Shoes: Inspection

Clean metal portion for brake shoes. Check to see if shoes are bent. Brake shoe lining should show contact across its entire width and from the heel to the toe of the lining, otherwise replace shoes. Shoes with lack of contact at toe or heel may be improperly ground. Clean and inspect support and adjusting screws. Apply a thin coat of Mopar(R) Multi-Purpose Lubricant to the threads of the self-adjuster. Replace adjuster screw if corroded.
