Brake Shoe Removal, Continued:
7. Remove brake drums and badly worn brake shoes.
7.1. On the back of each brake cluster assembly, locate the heads of two brake shoe retainer pins. It
may be necessary to remove sealant material around the head of each pin.
7.2. Insert a 1/2 inch x 5/8 inch cold chisel under the head of each pin and shear them off as illustrated
(Figure 6-2, Page 6-2)
. This will release the shoes from the backing plate, allowing them to pivot
away from the inside of the brake drum, which should then allow the brake drum to be pulled free.
After completing step 8, skip step 9.
NOTE: Although step 8 allows easier access to the brake shoes, it is not imperative to do so in order to
remove the brake shoes.
8. Remove the axle.
8.1. Using 90° snap ring pliers (CCI P/N 1012560), remove the axle retaining ring (1)
(Figure 6-3,
Page 6-2)
.
8.2. Pull the axle shaft (2) from the axle tube
(Figure 6-3, Page 6-2)
