  Q: How to remove and install Brake Shoe Set components in praking brake on Mitsubishi Mirage?

  A:

  Begin the removal procedure of 1994-00 Galant and 1992-96 Diamante components by raising the vehicle and supporting it using jackstands. Next, take off the caliper assembly and the rear brake rotor, along with disassembling and assembling the drum brakes one side at a time, as a reference. Next, take off the front and rear shoe-to-anchor springs, adjuster wheel spring and the adjuster. Next, remove the strut and strut return spring, followed by shoe hold-down cup, spring, and pin, then shoe and lining assemble. Take away the clips & retaining bolts for removal of cables. To install the wheels, reversal of the removal steps must be adopted. The adjuster must be positioned properly. The shoe adjusting bolt of the left wheel must face the front and that of the right wheel must face the rear. The load on each shoe-to-anchor spring is different because it is painted on spring. The procedure for a 1997-00 Diamante begins in a like manner, as the vehicle is raised and the caliper assembly and rear brake rotor removed. Next, the shoe hold-down spring retaining screw and shoe hold-down spring are removed and then the shoe assembly is taken from the backing plate. Installation is the reverse of removal. To adjust, disconnect floor console, free lever and back off cable adjuster locknut, see Figure 6. Get the vehicle elevated, safely support it, and remove the wheel. Subsequently, remove the hole plug in the brake rotor. Detach the brake caliper without disconnecting the fluid line and then use a prybar to adjust the self-adjuster wheel until the rotor will not turn. Reverse the position of the adjuster to five notches in the opposite direction. Turn the rotor with finger pressure, ensuring it spins freely (with slight drag). Reinstall the caliper and check operation.
