This handbrake shoe set is designed for an inner brake drum diameter of 178mm.
Check for proper adjustment of the handbrake cable. Inspect the handbrake shoes and drum for wear or contamination. Ensure the shoes are correctly installed and making full contact with the drum.
Verify that the handbrake shoes are correctly retracted. Check that the return springs are properly fitted and tensioned. Ensure the brake drum is not warped and spins freely when the parking brake is released.
Inspect the shoes for damage or debris. Ensure all mounting hardware and springs are correctly in place and not loose. The inside of the brake drum may require cleaning or lightly resurfacing if it has scoring.
Compatibility: This handbrake shoe set (Apec SHU798) is specifically designed for Volvo XC90 Mk1 models with a 2.5 petrol engine, manufactured between October 2002 and September 2014. It is compatible with vehicles utilizing the TRW brake system and fits an inner brake drum diameter of 178mm with shoes measuring 25mm in width. Always use the vehicle make and model tool provided or consult a professional to confirm compatibility with your specific vehicle's VIN and build date. This part is a direct replacement for Volvo OE part number 31262874.
Setup: Installation involves removing the rear wheel and brake drum. The old handbrake shoes are detached, and the new set is fitted onto the parking brake mechanism. Ensure all springs and clips are correctly re-seated. It is highly recommended that installation is performed by a qualified mechanic to ensure proper function and safety. After installation, the parking brake may require adjustment.
Care: Handbrake shoes are part of the braking system and generally require no routine user maintenance beyond ensuring they are functioning correctly. If you notice a decrease in parking brake effectiveness, it is time to inspect and potentially replace the shoes. Avoid exposing the braking components to excessive water or corrosive materials. Regular checks of parking brake operation during vehicle servicing are advised.
