Parking Brake Shoe: Service and Repair
Binding
This article has been updated by technical service bulletin (TSB) 98-5A-35 dated March 18, 1998.
ISSUE:
The rear parking brake cables may bind and not allow the rear brake shoes to return fully to the anchor pins after the parking brake is applied. This may
result in early brake wear, rear brake vibration/shudder, rear brake noise, drift/pull condition and/or poor fuel economy. This may be caused by a tight
bend in the parking brake cable at the left side rear spring bracket.
ACTION:
Reroute the parking brake cable and install a windlace on the left rear spring bracket to prevent chafing. This should reduce the possibility of the parking
brake cable binding. Refer to the TSB for details.
Note: All Chassis Cab vehicles are excluded.
