Brake Shoe: Testing and Inspection

CAUTION:  If you replace one set of shoes, you must replace the other set. To do otherwise will affect the uniformity of the rear brakes.

1. Check for damage to or abnormal wear of the brake shoes.

2. Measure the thickness of the lining.

-

Minimum thickness: 1.5 mm (0.06 inch)

-

Thickness (new): 6.4 mm (0.25 inch)

3. Check clearance between the drum and the ends of the brake shoes. If contact is poor, replace the shoes.
