Rear Brake Shoe Adjustment - Suzuki Jimny Workshop Manual

Rear brake has self-adjusting mechanism but it does require adjustment for proper drum to shoe clearance when brake shoe has been replaced or brake drum has been removed for some other service.

Adjustment is automatically accomplished by depressing brake pedal about 30 times with approximately 300 N (30 kg, 66 lbs) load after all parts are installed.

Then check brake drum for dragging and brake system for proper performance. After lowering vehicle from hoist, brake test should be performed.
