Front parking brake assambly '86 xt


Recommended Posts

 

Hi, I need help to know how to put this together, have tried everything possible, but can not find any sensible picture what it should look like or what direction the lever should sit. Has anyone here done this before who can explain or have pictures from the assembly?

These calipers have problematic parking brake mechanisms. Even if you assemble it perfectly it may not work right. I gave up and ordered a set from Rock Auto for my '88 Wagon. It took me (5) calipers to get 1 set with functioning parking brakes. Fortunately Rock Auto was really good about it but it was still a mess. I wish you the best of luck. If you get a good working set make sure and keep your brake fluid flushed and clean so they last as long as possible.
