Can't help you with your question, but Posted by Joe [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Parking brake cable replacement questions., dmz789abc, Sun, 2 Dec 2007 18:57:36 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I serviced my parking brake on my 2000 wagon yesterday. I pulled off the drums and lubed the contact points of the shoes on the backing plates. Then I adjusted them so the parking brake grabbed at 3 clicks.
My little rubber boots were shot too. I took 3" of tygon tubing and slit it lengthwise. I put it on where the rubber was and tywrapped it in place. The slit faces down. I then filled the tubing with spray lithium grease. This seemed to work well last year w/o the tubes. The tubes will keep the water from laying there. the grease is a second layer of protection. We will see how it works.
Drive Safe,
Joe
