Dumb question how in the heck does one take the rear brake shoes of. Can not figure out how to remove the spring like rod that holds the shoe to the back plate. Shoes are on a 66 Dart 170
You must have 9" brakes. Springs like these? More Information for RAYBESTOS H1156KThese are different I have taken of the type with the washer of before. These I have never seen they are spring type rod a can take a picture later today.
Geez, I did those once years ago cussing all the way. I think I used needle nose Vice Grips.Yes they look like those and yes they are 9 inch brakes.
With the right parts I would say possibly. The backing plates would have to be drilled for the pins of course and the pins the right length. The 9" brakes are pretty narrow so the pins would be pretty short.Yeap i did cuss for about an hour finally gave up and did mess up one of the springs didn't come of. Do you know if they can be replaced with the rod washer type
Here's a 9"x2" kit with pins. More Information for WAGNER H7073Yeap i did cuss for about an hour finally gave up and did mess up one of the springs didn't come of. Do you know if they can be replaced with the rod washer type
I don't know if they will work but worth a try. Seeing those kits reminds me I should buy up some for both of my cars. I have a self adjuster cable or two missing and all the hardware is original on both cars. Breaking a spring or a rusty hold down pin could certainly ruin your day.Thanks that was my next question I will try.
