Just remove the spring and they will rock out of the expander.
The shoes are handed mind so don't mix them up.

They just hook over two posts on the inside of the shoes..
Adjust the adjusting screw right in to remove the load, then you pry the shoes out of the slots on the spring side, I used a bar to do this.... Then it's just a case of lifting the springs off and your done.

Read the instructions in the electronic copy of the service manual I sent you almost three years ago.
When using a screwdriver to lever the shoe out the brake expander slot, use care that the brake show does not apply side pressure to the brake expander slot. If the expander is not already fractured or broken, it is quite easy to break them. In this instruction, the springs are not removed before the brake shoes are disengaged from the expander/plunger assemblies. Do not be tempted to reassemble with the springs on the outside. It is important to observe on reassembly the adjustment plungers are left and right hand. |
