Not Stopping
Ok. My 95 CC will not stop, or at least not until I run into something. So far it has just been my son. He doesn't complain much, but eventually he is going to catch on and quit running in front of me, so I probably better find a solution.
I have replaced the pads. Lubricated the cables and have free movement in the breaking lever on the back of the hub. Is there any chance that I need to replace my drum? |

Shoes not pads Foam. I'll bet your self adjusters are buggered. Small toothed wheel that is actuated by wear and break usage.. Wind em out to just making contact (drums just rubbing) and you should be ok. FC |

Re: Not Stopping
Jack it up, pull a wheel, and turn the adjuster ( square thing at the top of the backing plate) clockwise with a crescent wrench.
Turn it until you are no longer able to turn the drum. Then pump the drake peddle 3-4 times and check the drum. IF you can turn the drum, tighten the shoes up some more and repeat pump & check. Finally, back off the adjustment until the drum turns. YOU WANT THE SHOE TO DRAG a little. It will wear in in a day or 2. Repeat for the other side. |

Re: Not Stopping
That is the problem. I can turn the adjuster until the two pins fall behind it, and the drum is still free. That is why I was wondering if it would be possible if the drum is worn too far.

Re: Not Stopping
Usually when the drum is heavily worn there is a lip on the outside edge.

Re: Not Stopping
Ok,
Still having issues with the brakes. I have attached pictures of the E-Brake mechanism or self adjusters. Can anyone tell me how this functions? I don't see anyway that it puts pressure on the shoes. The brake diagram that I have, is different from my 95 DS. Is it possible to buy the whole mechanism? Any help would be appreciated. |
