GENUINE SPICER SERVICE PARTS
Should a brake assembly require replacement component parts, it is recommended that Spicer
Brake Service Parts be used. Spicer Brake Service Parts are manufactured under the same rigid
specification as are original equipment brake components. This assures the customer who uses
genuine Spicer service parts, maximum reliability for a Spicer Brake assembly. They may be
obtained through your vehicle manufacturer. The use of non-original Spicer service parts may
cause premature compontent failure and may void the warranty.
The items included in this book are currently being offered as service parts at the time of
printing. The part numbers and illustrations are provided specifically for reference purposes
only. Therefore, Spicer reserves the right to update this manual without notice or liability.

IDENTIFICATION
2
The brake assembly may be identified by a tag which is
located on the camshaft bracket cylinder, near the
grease fitting.
The mylar brake assembly tag contains the following:
Dana assembly number, bar coded customer assembly
number, and a numeric customer assembly number.
DAY OF YEARMODEL YEAR
JULIAN DATE CODE
Two other markings that may be used to identify a
Spicer Brake assembly are located on the assembly's
components. "Spicer" will be cast into the spider
assembly just above the anchor pins. Also, the inside of
the chamber bracket arm contains the following stamped
part information: "Spicer", julian date code, and the part
number.

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
All Spicer original equipment or service parts for
steering and drive axle brakes are manufactured using
non-asbestos brake lining. It is recommended that
original Spicer service parts be used when brake mainte-
nance is necessary.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Proper service and repair of vehicle components is
important to the safe and reliable operation of all motor
vehicles. This applies particularly to brakes such as the
ones described in this manual. The procedures recom-
mended and described in this manual are tested,
effective methods for performing service operation.
Follow each procedure closely, making use of both the
text and pictures. Some of these service procedures
show the use of certain tools designed especially for the
operation being performed. It is not mandatory that
these tools be used; they are shown only as preferred
means of performing the operation. It is not practical to
anticipate and advise the service trade of all possible
alternate service methods, and of all possible hazardous
consequences that could result from any particular
method. Accordingly, anyone who uses a service
procedure or tool different than shown must insure that
their safety, and that the vehicle’s safety will not be
jeopardized by the service method selected.

BRAKE DRUMS
Inspect for heat checks, grooves, hot spots, glazing,
cracks, and out of round. Drums which are glazed,
grooved, or have moderate heat checking may be
resurfaced and returned to service. The drum should
not be used if it exceeds the manufacturer’s recom-
mended maximum diameter stamped on the drum.

Brakes should be adjusted whenever the air chamber
push rod stroke exceeds the maximum distance accord-

BRAKE LUBRICTION
Lubricate the camshaft thru the grease fitting on the
camshaft bracket with the chassis lube specified by the
vehicle manufacturer. Lube once every six months or at
every chassis lubrication.
BRAKE RELINE
The life of the brake lining is dependent on many factors
such as the material of the lining, type of operation the
vehicle is used for, geographic terrain, maintenance
practice of the shop, and the driver of the vehicle. If
driving conditions require frequent braking, lining
replacement will be required more often.
FOR RIVET LINING
Reline when thickness of lining is 1/4 " at thinnest
point, or 1/16" above rivet head.
FOR CAST SHOES WITH BOLTED LININGS
Reline when lining is below wear indicator line or
thickness is .31" at the thinnest point or 1/16" above
bolt head.
BRAKE OVERHAUL
As often as necessary to maintain satisfactory brake
performance. When overhauling the brakes, provide equal
service to both the left and right side of an axle.

RELINE PROCEDURE
The installation should be checked by attempting to
insert a .006" feeler gage between the lining and shoe
table. It should not be possible to insert the feeler gage
anywhere along the edge. See F See F

6. The only
exception is at each end and beyond the last row of
rivets/bolts. A slightly larger clearance may exist in
these areas.
Riveting Application
Some brake failures result from the use of rivets which
are too short, too long, or the wrong diameter. Incor-
rect setting of the riveting machine may induce other
types of failures.
The solid portion of the rivet should end just at the
inner surface of the shoe. The hollow portion of the
rivet should extend past the inner surface of the shoe.
The proper size rivet must be used to completely fill the
hole.

RIVETSRIVETS
RIVETSRIVETS
RIVETS
Brass plated steel rivets are recommened. The riveting
machine must be adjusted so that the roll of the rivet is
complete, but the rivet should not split. Always use a
roll set, never a star set, when riveting brake linings. A
star set does not compress the rivet and expand it to fill
the hole. Consequently, the lining may work loose in
service.
Bolts/Rivets Removal
When removing bolts/rivets from the brake shoes, be
careful to avoid doing any damage to the holes in the
shoe. Do not use a chisel to shear them off. The force
will elongate the bolt/rivet holes. Neglecting any
elongated holes may result in a loose fitting installation.
If holes are burred, they should be filed down flush with
the shoe table.
Cleaning the Shoe
Rust often developes on the surface of the shoe table
under the brake lining or blocks. During every reline job,
shoe tables should be cleaned thoroughly. The best
procedure is to steam clean the entire shoe or put it into
a degreaser.
After cleaning the shoe, the shoe should be scraped
clean of rust and scale. Any burrs or nicks should be
filed smooth. At the same time, the entire shoe should
be examined to see if it is worn or bent.
Shoe Inspection
The shoe should be either reconditioned or discarded.
It is also necessary to check for flat spots on the shoe
that can be caused by cleaning away the rust from the
area that was under the block previously. This can cause
a mismatch of shoe and lining arcs. After the shoe is
cleaned and inspected, it should be given a coating of
rust preventative paint. Treatment of a new, unpainted
shoe is also suggested to prevent the initial rusting
problem.

noise may result because of cracked and/or loose lining
since a tight installation is not possible with shims. The
inside surface of the correct arc to match the shoe table,
and the rivet/bolt holes in the linings will only line up
with holes in the shoes when they are in direct contact.
Prior to riveting/bolting be sure the holes in the lining
blocks and the shoes are exactly matched.
The sequence of riveting/bolting should be such that
the center of the block is attached first and then the
ends. See page 2 See page 2
