Installation (All Models)

  1. To install, reverse removal procedure. Apply Lubriplate (or equivalent), to all shoe contact points, adjuster assembly, wheel cylinder, and parking brake lever pin. After pulling lever fully toward center of brake, adjust amount of engagement of adjusting lever with strut. Note that adjusting lever and latch spring differ between right and left sides.
  2. Colt models require check of parking brake cable to ensure it will not advance brake lever when released. Adjuster will malfunction if lever advances.
  3. Pickups require check of adjuster after installation is complete. Adjuster lever should mesh with next tooth of adjuster when pulled, and return to original position after wheel has moved one tooth. Adjuster assemblies differ between right and left sides.
