Rear Brake Shoes
To adjust brake shoe clearance, first adjust brake shoe outside diameter on models listed in BRAKE SHOE INSTALLATION DIAMETER table. On other models, set adjustment assembly so brake shoes lightly contact brake drum. On all models, with brake drum installed, fully release parking brake and depress brake pedal several times to center shoes and adjust brake shoe clearance. Adjust parking brake, and check pedal travel. Rotate brake drum to verify free movement.
