2005 Chevrolet Venture Parking Brake Shoe Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to replace the Parking Brake Shoe on 2005 Chevrolet Venture?

  A: The replacement of parking brake shoes begins with lifting the vehicle before supporting it. Next remove both rear tire and wheels. Start by relieving tension from the park brake system at the equalizer assembly before proceeding to remove the rear caliper bracket together with the rear rotor. The first step involves disconnecting the rear park brake cable from its bracket position at the wheel as well as removing the park brake cable return spring attached to the park brake actuator and bracket located at the rear wheel. To continue with the procedure you must separate the rear hub from other components consisting of the rear hub and backing plate alongside the park brake cable bracket and park brake actuator assembly. Two retainers and a park brake cable bracket need removal from the park brake actuator before setting the rear hub to the side. First separate the park brake shoe from the actuator while removing the pair components from the backing plate. The installation process starts with combining the park brake shoe with the actuator and placing this combination on the backing plate. Establish the park brake shoe with actuator along with backing plate over the rear hub before installing the park brake cable bracket and the two retainers. Replace the rear hub assembly in position before you connect the rear park brake cable to its bracket at the rear wheel and affix the park brake cable return spring to both the actuator and bracket at the rear wheel. Start by installing the rear rotor after which you should add the rear caliper bracket before putting back the rear wheels and tires. Complete the procedure by readjusting the park brake system followed by lowering the vehicle.
