Brake Cluster Removal
1. Disconnect the battery cables as instructed. See WARNING "To avoid unintentionally starting..." in
General Warnings, Section 1, Page 1-2.
2. Place chocks at the front wheels and loosen the lug nuts on the rear wheels. Lift the rear of the vehicle
with a chain hoist or floor jack. Place jack stands under the axle tubes to support the vehicle. See Gen-
eral Warnings, Section 1, Page 1-1.
3. Gain access to the pedal group by removing the floor mat and access panel. See Pedal Group
Removal, Section 5, Page 5-1..
4. Loosen the two jam nuts (1 and 3) on either side of turnbuckle (2) (Figure 6-1, Page 6-2). Note that the
forward jam nut (1) is a left-hand thread. Thread each nut approximately 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) away from
the turnbuckle.
5. Loosen turnbuckle (2) to release tension on the equalizer bracket (4) that pulls on the heads of the brake
cables.
6. Remove lug nuts and rear wheels and then the brake drums.
NOTE: When servicing vehicles with self-adjusting brakes with badly worn brake shoes and when the
drums cannot be removed by normal methods, perform Step 7 of Brake Shoe Removal on
page 6-2, then continue with this procedure.
Although step 7 below allows easier access to the brake shoes, it is not imperative to do so in order
to remove the brake shoes.
7. Remove the axle.
7.1. Using 90° snap ring pliers (CCI P/N 1012560), remove the axle retaining ring (1) (Figure 6-3,
Page 6-2).
7.2. Pull the axle shaft (2) from the axle tube (Figure 6-3, Page 6-2).
8. Remove bow tie locking pin (13) and clevis pin (12) from brake cable (Figure 6-4, Page 6-3).
