Drum Brakes (2001 Forester)

Featured Replies

Help! I know this question has been asked before but her goes (again)! Is there anybody out there that has a good diagram of the the rear drum brake assembly for a 2001 FORESTER L? Had to replace a bad rear left drum brake cylinder and am now in the process of 'buttoning' everything back up. However when you work on brakes you want to be sure! Need diagram showing location of tensioner fork, sprocket, and adjuster lever, and springs? Any help would be appreciated! AS you know Murphy's law will probably cause me to "fish around" for the adjuster level on the other drum to back the shoes off if I try to look at the opposite side for comparison (PITA) .. so a diagram would be much appreciated! Thanks.

so you can look at the other. If it's too late for that how about downloading that Subaru shop manual at Endwrench?

Here's the repair .pdf from the Service Manual

Great Info, Thanks!
