Rear

BRAKE SHOES
Clean the rear brake shoes and calipers with a water-dampened cloth or with a brake cleaner. Do not use a petroleum based product.
If a visual inspection does not adequately determine the condition of the lining, a physical check will be necessary.
Remove the rear brake pads.
The combined brake shoe and lining material thickness should be measured at the thinnest part of the assembly.
When a set of brake shoes are worn to a total thickness of approximately 7.0 mm (9/32 inch) or less, they should be replaced.
Replace both brake shoe assemblies (inboard and outboard). It is necessary that both front wheel sets be replaced whenever brake shoe assemblies on either side are replaced.
If the brake shoe assemblies do not require replacement, reinstall the assemblies making sure each brake shoe is returned to the original position.

CALIPER INSPECTION
Check for brake fluid leaks in and around the boot area. Check for any ruptures, brittleness or damage to the piston dust boot. If the boot is damaged, or a fluid leak is visible, disassemble the caliper assembly and install a new seal and boot, and a piston if it is scored. Refer to Disassemble and Assembly.
Check the guide pin dust boots to determine if they are in good condition. Replace if they are damaged, dry, or found to be brittle. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly.
