Remove the brake disc and inspect the thickness of the lining material on the shoes; if it has worn down to 0.039 inch or less, replace the shoes. Unhook the parking brake shoe return springs from the anchor pin using a special brake spring tool for ease. Remove the shoe strut from between the shoes along with the spring assembly, then take out the front shoe hold-down spring, followed by the shoe and adjuster. Next, remove the rear shoe hold-down spring, disconnect the parking brake cable from the lever, and take out the shoe. Spread the C-washer on the parking brake lever pivot pin with a screwdriver, then remove the lever, shim, and pin, transferring these parts to the new rear shoe and crimping the C-washer to the pin with pliers. Apply a thin coat of high-temperature grease to the shoe contact surfaces of the backing plate and to the threads and sliding portion of the adjuster. Connect the parking brake cable to the lever and mount the rear shoe to the backing plate, installing the hold-down spring. Connect the tension spring to the lower ends of both shoes and install the adjuster, ensuring the tension spring and adjuster screw are arranged correctly. Position the front shoe on the plate and install the hold-down spring, then install the parking brake strut with the spring facing forward between the two shoes, followed by the shoe return springs. Install the brake disc, temporarily threading three of the wheel lug nuts onto the studs to hold it in place. Remove the hole plug from the brake disc 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 disc and it cannot be turned, then back off the adjuster eight notches and install the plug. Install the torque plate and brake caliper, ensuring the bolts are tightened to the specified torque, then install the wheel and tighten the lug nuts to the specified torque. Pull up on the parking brake handle and count the number of clicks; it should be between five and eight clicks, and if not, adjust the parking brake. To bed the shoes to the drum, drive the vehicle at approximately 30 mph on a dry, level road, pushing in on the parking brake release button and pulling up slightly on the lever with about 20 pounds of force, driving for 1/4-mile with the parking brake applied. Repeat this procedure two or three times, allowing the brakes to cool between applications.

Install the adjuster assembly on the rear shoe, place the rear shoe assembly against the backing plate, and push the hold-down spring pin through the shoe. Install the cups and lock the outer cup to the pin.
