This article supersedes TSB article 83-25-18, dated December 13, 1983, to include all 1975-84 E & F-100/150 & Bronco vehicles that have 11" diameter rear brakes.
Some E and F-100/150 and Bronco vehicles subjected to extreme duty cycles in urban delivery/service operations may experience accelerated rear brake wear. A service kit(E0UZ-2C178-A) has been released for these vehicles and should be installed in its entirety if the vehicle exhibits any of the following conditions:
^ Side to side imbalance in rear braking effectiveness.
^ Side to side imbalance in rear brake lining wear.
^ Excessive heat ("blued" shoes and/or drums).
The service kit consists of replacement front and rear brake linings, rear wheel cylinders and a proportioning valve. These parts must be installed per the appropriate shop manual installation procedure.
NOTE: If a misalignment between the drum braking surface and the shoe ledge guides of the brake backing plate is suspected, refer to TSB 82-24 for the appropriate service procedures before installing the service kit (E0UZ-2C178-A).
