REMOVAL PROCEDURE
1. Raise the vehicle. Support the vehicle.

CAUTION: When servicing brake parts, do not create dust by grinding or sanding brake linings, by cleaning brake parts with a dry brush or with compressed air. Many earlier models or aftermarket brake parts may contain asbestos fibers which can become airborne if dust is created during servicing. Breathing dust containing asbestos fibers may cause serious bodily harm. A water dampened cloth or water based solution should be used to remove any dust on brake parts. Equipment is commercially available to perform this washing function. These wet methods will prevent fibers from becoming airborne.

NOTICE: Brake fluid will damage painted surfaces. Shop cloths and clean containers should be used to prevent spillage of brake fluid.

2. Clean any dirt and foreign material from around the wheel cylinder (2) assembly inlet and pilot.
3. Remove the tire and wheel assembly.
4. Remove the inlet tube nut and line. Plug the opening in the line in order to prevent fluid loss and contamination.
5. Remove the brake drum and components. Do not let the backing plate hang from the parking brake cable as damage may occur.
6. Remove the wheel cylinder bolts (4).
7. Remove the wheel cylinder (2).
