Park brake shoes replacement
Make sure you get 95lbs ft on the hub bearing bolts. Most just yuck it up then back off a frac till it spins free, but they forget about the heat generated, metal expands .. .. a lot when it comes to bearings.
O)k... I did it.
I started at 12:30 to get my first wheel of..
Around 17:00 I finished my first wheel
And around 18:00 the second wheel
Holy @%^^@%@^3@$ what a crap job to find out how to do it.
But as soon as you figured out a smart way to do it its easy.
I did not manage to get the wheelhub of.
First the lower bolts of the hub and bearing where unreachable by my tools and I had to by shorter tools to get to the bolts, then the hub appeared to be welded..
I struggled for 2 hours but didnt get it off.
So I gave up on that.
Then I wounded myself with a jumping spring and struggled to get the new shoes on and attach the springs at the same time..
Until I found a smart trick to attach the shoes with only the back spring mounted using a small crowbar and attaching the lower spring and the frontside spring afterwards.
The second wheel only took me 1 hour.
What - a -**** - ty - job
