replacing front drum brakes

Attach the brake shoe retraction

springs as shown in picture 25. 27

Make sure the adjustment bolts
are fully screwed in, this will re-

duce the tension on the springs.

Slide one brake shoe into the

wheel brake cylinder and the
adjusting screw on one side,

while the springs are already in

place. Pull the other brake shoe
and also slide it into the wheel

brake cylinder and the adjusting

nut (picture 26). The whole thing

will soon be held in place by pins
and springs.

Slide the pin through the brake 28
backing plate at the bottom,

slide the spring over the pin

(photo 27), and secure
the whole (photo

28) with the metal

retainer. We have

already shown on
page 36 with which

tools this can be

done. Do the same
with the second

brake shoe.
