1971 Rear Brake Diagram
Does anybody out there have a good picture of the rear brake assembly on a 1971 1/2 ton truck???? (Chevrolet 11" brake) I need a good picture or diagram showing the spring installation on the left & right sides. I have looked in several manuals and haven't found anything useful. I had to strip my brakes off when I rebuilt the differential. I should have taken pictures..... but who's to say the brakes were installed properly in the first place. My brakes were messed up too. Any pictures would be greatly appreciated! TJ

Re: 1971 Rear Brake Diagram
I can't remember how the parking brake cable attaches to the shoe. Anyone have a picture?

Re: 1971 Rear Brake Diagram
^^^This is a picture of the left side. Note that the shoe with more friction material is the rear. The right side is a mirror image. If you ended up with shoes with long linings on both, that's OK. I've seen them come that way, before.

Re: 1971 Rear Brake Diagram
Secondary (rear) shoe ALWAYS have more lining material that the primary (front) shoe on dual servo brakes like these.
