Verify the Leading and Trailing shoes are installed in the correct relationship.
-
Any contamination should be removed from the new shoes immediately. If very light hand sanding will not remove the contamination the shoes
should be discared.
-
When replacing shoes/linings or drums always replace both sides per axle. If only one side is replaced a steering pull may develop during braking.
-
If brake hardware is being replaced, verify that both the color and shape of the new springs match the old springs.
-
Prior to reinstalling the drum, the automatic adjuster will need to be backed off to accommodate for the increased thickness of the new
shoes/linings.
