Cadillac & Oldsmobile

Remove drums and ensure parking brake cable and linkage is free. Measure drum inside diameter, using suitable tool (J-21177). Adjust shoes to fit opposite side of measuring tool (see illustration). Replace drums and drive vehicle alternately backward and forward, applying brakes moderately, until pedal travel is adequate (2 1/16" maximum).
