I've had a problem with a left rear brake not staying adjusted and, by proxy affecting the parking brake holding.
It looks like I have a mangled shoe anchor pin. This is the type where the anchor pin has a slot on the back side, vs something you can get a wrench on and then a lock nut. I cannot get enough leverage through the wallowed-out slot to keep it in position to tighten the lock nut.
So I think I am going to have to replace that pin. I think it's a combination of that wallowed-out slot and mangled threads.
If anyone has an extra anchor pin or backing plate laying around that they would like to sell, please let me know.
I can see why they eventually move away from the slotted pin.
I think the part number listed in the Parts Manual is GRP 1.405 - 315937 - PIN Shoe Anchor - 115C-1600
Not sure what the difference is between group 1.404 and 1.405.
120c is listed in 1.404 and the 115c is listed in 1.405. 1.404 is not shown on the parts diagram. So I dunno.
