  Q: How to service and repair the Brake Shoe Set on Ford Ranger?

  A:

  Service and repair of brake shoes starts with confirming total release of parking brake control. The Brake Drum removal will expose the rear brake assembly for inspection where you should check the Wheel Cylinder for leakage before replacing it if needed. Check brake shoes and lining products for any form of contamination before verifying they exceed specified plate or rivet measurements for replacement purposes. Check for heat damage on the springs while examining their suitable replacement status and verify if the brake adjuster screw receives proper contact from the adjusting lever. First disconnect the brake shoe adjusting lever cable before proceeding to remove springs and adjusting screws from the assembly by disconnecting the cable guide and taking out adjusting lever return springs as well as the brake shoe adjusting lever. You must first eliminate the brake shoe adjusting screw spring and brake adjuster screw assembly then move on to removing the brake shoe anchor pin guide plate together with the parking brake strut. Detach all brake shoe hold-down springs and rear brakes with their linings from the assembly and remove brake shoe hold-down pins too along with disconnecting the parking brake lever. Attach the parking brake lever after compressing its cable spring for installation. Put specified silicone brake caliper grease on the brake Backing Plate for cleaning and lubrication steps. Place rear brake shoes together with the parking brake lever before inserting brake shoe hold-down spring pins while including the springs into place. Screw in the parking brake strut only after placing the parking brake link spring correctly and installing the brake shoe anchor pin guide plate. Install the short brake shoe retracting spring after properly placing the brake shoe adjusting lever cable and then set the long brake shoe retracting spring into position. To prepare the brake adjuster screw set install silicone brake caliper grease on the threads then place the screw inside the nut before rotating it by half a turn. Position the brake adjuster screw assembly after mounting it while placing both the adjusting lever cable and the adjusting lever return spring correctly. Use the brake shoe adjusting lever cable to test automatic self-adjuster operation through assessment of brake shoe adjuster assembly rotation and verification it moves to the following notch after cable release. To complete the process wrap up by readjusting the brakes followed by brake drum installation.

  Q: How to Ensure Proper Brake Shoe Set Maintenance on a Ford Ranger?

  A:

  As the first step to service and repair brake shoes start with Brake Drum removal for inspecting the rear brake assembly to check for excessive Wheel Cylinder leakage and shoe and lining contamination alongside checking the minimum thickness above the Backing Plate or rivets and heat discoloration of springs as well as the adjusting lever contact to the brake adjuster screw. Write down the positions of the retracting brake shoe springs before removing both the short and the long springs. The maintenance sequence begins with breaking the connection between the brake shoe adjusting lever cable and lever while you uninstall the cable guide followed by the adjusting lever return spring and lever and screw spring and brake adjuster screw assembly. Replace brake shoe anchor pin guide plate, parking brake strut and parking brake lever pin retainer with the rear brake shoes as well as linings including installation of brake shoe hold-down springs and spring pins. The installation begins with cleaning and lubricating the brake backing plate using Silicone Brake Caliper Grease alongside Dielectric Compound D7AZ-19A331-A (Motorcraft WA-10) or an equivalent silicone compound that satisfies Ford specification ESE-M1C171-A. Afterward, connect the parking brake lever to the rear brake shoe and lining before installing the rear brake shoes and linings and securing them through brake shoe hold-down spring pins and springs. After installing the parking brake spring retainer the operator must place the parking brake strut together with the parking brake link spring followed by installation of the brake shoe anchor pin guide plate. The correct positioning of the brake shoe adjusting lever cable must be ensured before installing the short brake shoe retracting spring along with the long brake shoe retracting spring and the cable guide. The assembly process includes removing brake adjuster screws from the screw assembly. Install silicone grease and place screws back together while making sure each screw has an R or L stamp marking on its socket end. Install the brake adjuster screw assembly followed by the brake shoe adjusting screw spring within its appropriate position then place the brake shoe adjusting lever together with all its components. The automatic self-adjuster operation can be tested by pulling the brake shoe adjusting lever cable to verify brake shoe adjuster assembly rotation and next notch advancement after release. Brake adjustment should follow before reinstallation of the brake drum.
