    Reinstalling parking brake

    Alright, I had the entire parking brake assembly out when I did the subframe bushings and I made the mistake of not setting it out in the order it came out.

    Does anyone have some tips or pictures as to how to reinstall the parking brake assembly? I cannot seem to get everything to fit correctly.

    pretty simple.

    lay out brake shoes, springs, etc. on a table if it helps.

    Thread brake cables through.
    Connect to mechanism(s) (lower)
    Install shoes via spring-loaded allen clip/screws

    Install adjusters (top)
    Install shoe springs.
    (be mindful with these springs – different springs for top and bottom – note orientation of long/middle spring section)
