drum brakes on bundy / hilux

Post by robbie »

aye guys

anyone done the brakes on a bundy / hilux??

well, I dont have pics to explain - but there are the shoes, and on one of the shoes is the handbrake assembly..

anyway, to connect that handbrake assembly to the shoe is a shaft type thing, with 2 x C clips (one small, and one large)

my question is, how the frig do you get that shaft out of the shoe to put in the new one? is it pressed in or something?

I have tried hammering it out, but it wont budge!

Goddamn toyo's always gotta play with your head when you want to get
them on the road

if your talking about the adjustment down the bottom with springs take the springs it and then lever each pad of the clip. if you are replacing the pads try to take the hole pad assembly of and do it on the floor or bench then put it back much easier but not allways possible

put the shoe on top of somthing eg vice, so the pin is facing up and sitting in between and hit the top side of the pin so it pushes through the other side, then knock the pin back into the new shoe. hard to explain

Hope this helps or call me if u get stuck
