  Q: How to service and repair the parking brake shoe on Chevrolet Monte Carlo?

  A:

  The Parking Brake Shoe service requires removal of the caliper bracket and rotor and the rear Wheel Hub before stopping at the parking brake actuator and shoe. The parking brake actuator along with the park brake shoe need to be removed next. Apply the park brake shoe to the park brake actuator before installing the shoe as well as the lining. Proceed with the rear Wheel Hub installation followed by the installation of the parking brake actuator before performing the adjustment of the rear Parking Brake Shoe. The last step involves returning the caliper bracket alongside the rotor into place.

  Q: How to replace the Parking Brake Shoe on Chevrolet Monte Carlo?

  A:

  Start shoe replacement by lifting the vehicle before supporting it and removing the tire assemblies from the rear. Begin by reducing pressure in the park brake system at the equalizer assembly so you can proceed to remove the rear caliper bracket along with the rear rotor. The rear park brake cable should be detached from its bracket at the rear wheel before removing the park brake cable return spring from the park brake actuator and corresponding rear wheel bracket. The next step requires disassembly of all components within the rear hub assembly including the rear hub combined with the backing plate together with the park brake cable bracket and park brake actuator. Take off both retainers as well as the park brake cable bracket which are installed in the park brake actuator before placing the rear hub to the side. Start by removing the park brake shoe combined with the actuator from the backing plate then detach the park brake shoe section from the actuator. The park brake shoe needs installation at the actuator before being fitted onto the backing plate. Position the park brake shoe together with the actuator along with the backing plate above the rear hub while installing the park brake cable bracket and its two retainers which should be tightened to 10 nm (89 inch lbs.). You will install the rear hub assembly while securing the park brake cable to its bracket at the back wheel then fasten the cable return spring on the brake actuator which also connects to the rear wheel bracket. You must first add the rear rotor, rear caliper bracket, and rear tire and wheel assemblies along with an adjustment of the park brake system before lowering the vehicle.
