Maintain your Split Bus Rear Drum Brakes for Optimum Efficiency
All VW Split models come equipped with rear drum brakes. While these drum brakes boast longevity, regular maintenance remains essential. Addressing poorly adjusted T2 rear brake shoes or a replacing a leaky Split wheel cylinder is crucial for maintaining effective braking. Prevent potential issues that could lead to uneven braking or failure by staying proactive with regular maintenance.
Rear VW Split Brake Shoe Replacement
Whilst replacing worn T2 Splitscreen rear brake shoes isn’t a regular thing, making sure they are adjusted and wearing evenly is something to at least check annually, if not more often. For peace of mind renew all brake springs and clips simultaneously, conveniently available in our Split Bus rear brake shoe fitting kit. In case essential components inside the brake drum, such as emergency brake lever arms, distance bars, or adjusting screws, require attention, Heritage Parts Centre can supply these components with Express Delivery.
Split Screen Bus Brake Drum Backing Plates
For those undertaking a thorough restoration project, consider including parts like Split brake drum backing plates in your shopping list. These plates, bolted to the rear hub, provide the anchor for Split rear wheel cylinders. Supplied in black paint, some enthusiasts opt for powder coating pre-assembly to enhance longevity and long-term appearance.
Split Bus Rear Wheel Cylinders
Integral to your braking system, VW Splitscreen rear wheel cylinders play a pivotal role. Connected to the system by the rear brake hoses and brake pipes, these cylinders exert pressure on brake shoes within the rear drum, with the hydraulic brake fluid operating the pistons. This forces the brake shoes to create friction against the drum, slowing rotation, and consequently, the vehicle. Monitor rubber seals for potential failures, preventing fluid leakage that will compromise braking efficiency and safety.
Bleeding Split Rear Brakes
After any hydraulic system work, such as replacing Splitscreen brake hoses or rear wheel cylinders, bleeding air from the system is vital. This prevents a spongy brake pedal and ensures optimal braking efficiency.
Trust Heritage Parts Centre for quality braking components and maintenance advice to keep your Split Bus rear brakes in top condition.
