3.  Install in the reverse order of removal.

4.  After installation, pump the brake pedal a few times and inspect the following:

Caution
•  The parts securing the parking brake cable may be damaged if the parking brake lever is pulled while the brake drum is removed. Operate the parking brake lever only when the brake drums are installed.
Note
•  If there is excessive clearance between the brake drum and brake shoe, it is possible that the automatic adjuster function cannot be operated correctly. Verify that the clearance is within the specification when removing the brake drum or brake shoe, and adjust if necessary by turning the adjust screw with a flathead screwdriver.
