Remove the rear brake discs and inspect the thickness of the lining material on the shoes; if the lining has worn down to 1/32-inch or less, the shoes must be replaced. Remove the hub and bearing assembly, noting that it is possible to perform the shoe replacement procedure without removing it, although working room is very limited. Wash off the brake parts with brake system cleaner, ensuring to wash the parking brake assembly before disassembly. Follow the accompanying illustrations for the brake shoe replacement procedure: unstake the hub nut and remove the hub for easier access to the parking brake components, then remove the return springs, lift off the retainer plate, spread the shoes, and remove the strut. Remove the star-wheel mechanism, noting which end is facing forward, then remove the shoe hold-down springs and retainers, the lower spring, and disconnect the shoe from the parking brake cable, setting all components aside for cleaning. Apply brake lubricant to the backing plates at the raised areas that support the shoes, lightly lubricate the star-wheel threads and friction surfaces, and install the front shoe followed by its hold-down spring and retainer, then the rear shoe, hold-down spring, and retainer. Install the star-wheel with the correct threaded end facing forward, the lower spring, the strut with its spring on the forward end, the upper retainer, and the front and rear springs. Tighten the hub nut to the torque and stake it to the spindle, ensuring to stay in order and read the caption under each illustration. Install the brake disc and temporarily thread three of the wheel lug nuts onto the studs to hold the disc in place. Remove the hole plugs from the brake discs and adjust the parking brake shoe clearance by turning the adjuster star wheel with a brake adjusting tool or screwdriver until the shoes contact the discs and the discs can't be turned; back off the adjusters five notches and then install the hole plugs. Install the brake caliper, ensuring to tighten the bolts to the torque, then install the wheel and tighten the lug nuts to the torque, followed by adjusting the parking brake.
