my drum brakes are a real pain. one side is missing an adjusting cable and i cant find any replacement cables. anybody know of a good place to get replacement parts asside from the toyota dealer. they didnt even know what part i was talking about. i may say to heck with it and swap to disc.

 

also i do have a rer end from a 2wd toyota, the brakes are a bit different though.the 84 4wd is the duo servo type and the 2wd is the leading trailing type. is there any way i could swap the parts fron the leading trailing type to the the duo servo type. the shoes look similar but i havent taken them and compared them . has anybody ever tried to swap these?

 

will be pulling the ones off my 84 this weekend when i convert to disk in the rear and disk on the tranmission welcome to any parts you want just for shipping costs

 

I'm going through the same thing on my 85' rear drums. My dealer was very helpful. I will add it helps them out if you can provide your VIN number as the rear brake set-up seemed to vary a little during certain years.

Did you just call and ask about the part..cuz sometimes it has been helpful for me to go to the parts department while they have it pulled up on thier screen to see the schematics and point out what I'm needing.

Just my 2 cents...
