Front View of the Parking Brake (A) Disengaged dimension for the parking brake. (1) Starwheel. (2) Access hole. (3) Brake drum. (4) Lever. (5) Splined shaft. (6) Bolt holes for the brake drum.
Remove eight bolts (6) that hold brake drum (3) on to the drive shaft yoke. This allows rotation of brake drum (3) for correct adjustment.
Access starwheel (1) through access holes (2) . Rotate starwheel (1) until the brake shoes press against the brake drum. The brake shoes must cause enough drag so that the drum (3) cannot be rotated by hand. Then rotate starwheel (1) in the opposite direction by 12 clicks.
Push up on lever (4) . Dimension (A) is measured from the centerline of lever (4) to the bottom mounting hole of the bracket assembly for parking brake actuator. Dimension (A) equals 56 15 mm (2.2 0.6 inches).Note: In order to adjust lever (4) , remove lever (4) from the splined shaft (5) . Rotate lever (4) about splined shaft (5) in order to achieve dimension (A) .
Install eight bolts (6) that hold brake drum (3) on to the drive shaft yoke.
Install the front drive shaft.

Without applying pressure to actuator (7) , adjust rod (9) to equal dimension (B) . Dimension (B) equals 95.0 mm (3.74 inch).
Start the engine. Operate the engine until actuator (7) is pressurized to a minimum of 14830 kPa (2150 psi). At this pressure, rod (9) fully extends.Note: The parking brake should be in the DISENGAGED position for the next step.
Make a final adjustment of the length of rod (9) . To adjust, push up on lever (4) so that the cam for the parking brake contacts the brake shoes. Rotate yoke (10) in order to allow installation of clevis pin (12) into yoke
