GMC Terrain Brake Shoe
Brake Shoe of the GMC Terrain vehicles are part of the drum brake system that is responsible for the required friction in order to produce the force that is needed to bring the movement of the vehicle to a stop. When applied, the brake shoes rub on the brake drum this absorbs the energy and slows down the vehicle accordingly. This mechanism is operated by hydraulic pistons that extend the shoes on to a backing plate to which they are fixed. Non-servo and duo-servo styles of brake shoes have been used on GMC Terrain vehicles in years past. Both types of brake are self energising but duo-servo brakes are generally more powerful because its design means that the rotating drum tightens the shoe on to it. The brake shoes require periodic examination and service because their wear and contamination disable their effectiveness and security.

GMC Terrain Brake Shoe Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How to remove the rear brake shoes?A: To remove the rear brake shoes, start by loosening the wheel lug nuts and raising the rear of the vehicle, supporting it securely on jackstands. Release the parking brake and remove the wheel. Then, remove the adjuster lever and the star-wheel assembly. Depress the front shoe retainer and turn it to remove it, followed by removing the front brake shoe. Remove the rear shoe retainer and allow the shoe to come free. Pry open the clip to disconnect the parking brake lever from the rear shoe. For installation, begin by lubricating the backing plate contact points after thoroughly cleaning it. Crimp the clip to attach the new rear shoe to the parking brake lever and install the pin through the backing plate and the rear shoe. Install the spring and the retainer to the pin, using a special tool to compress the spring and engage the retainer. Repeat the same procedure for the front brake shoe. Clean the star-wheel adjuster and lightly lubricate it before installing the star-wheel assembly with the star to the front. Install the adjuster lever and the upper spring, hooking it into the adjuster. Install the lower spring and adjust the star wheel to give a very light drag when the brake drum is turned. Before reinstalling the drum, it should be checked for cracks, score marks, deep scratches, and hard spots. If any of these conditions exist, the drum must be taken to have it resurfaced.
