I remember finding either a screwdriver or a piece of wood to wedge behind the pin to keep it in place while I pushed in the spring and captured it with the top washer.
1: neverseize, use it for future easy removal of caliper bracket. This is one of the worse designed parking brake assemblies I have ever worked on. The pins and springs that hold the shoes to the backing plate are a pain in the neck. Also, the wear on the shoes seems strange unless someone drove the car with the parking brake on. These are parking brakes after all, and the car should be stopped before applying them.
THANKS BROTHER, THIS HELPED A TON !!! VERY GREAT VIDEO !!!
Excellent video!
How did you put in the shoe hold down pin that’s angled I’m having a horrible time trying to fit it

Was your parking brake stuck on because the cable was old and corroded/rusted?
The cable was fine. There just wasn't enough pad to hold the car in place.
@@forsterclan-diy6907 we've just stopped using parking brakes on our old Toyotas because they often stick.
