    Parking brake/shoe hold down pin

    Thanks guys. Did some more research and found a good YouTube video. I picked up the kit and so far have the hold down pin removed. Now time to do the hard part. Fingers crossed. It was pretty bent so I'm glad I went with the kit. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

    Parking brake/shoe hold down pin

    I made the mistake of taking the rear rotors off and pulling the shoe hold down pin/spring/retainer out of its spot. It is now rubbing the back of the hub when the hub spins. The other side is just fine. I've never had to mess with a parking brake before and it looks/sounds like a terrible time...

    4x4 PSA: Use it or lose it monthly reminder

    WTB: 4th Gen V8 (MD/VA/PA)

    I inquired about it way back in November maybe early December. Carfax does show one accident. Also, toyota service website shows lots of brake changes and brake repairs throughout the life of the car. I straight told them that they would need to drop the price at least $6,000 before anyone...

    Wanted HELP: 4th Gen 06-08 Limited 4WD V8

    I actually inquired about this car 2 weeks ago. After speaking with the salesman about it, I had to tell him off about how over priced it was. I couldn't find too many records for maintenance and there was also an accident on the carfax. I told him that they were asking about 5k more than...
