60Patrol

  Has anyone else on replaced the parking brake pads on their patrols? if so, how much of a pain is it? i think i have all of the parts, but havent really looked into how to disassemble/ reassemble it. If it is difficult to fix, I suppose that i deserve it, as i was the imbicile who drove 30 miles with the brake on!

i rivited flat belting on mine i used some liquid nails to works great jerry

i took mine down to the local relining shop.....they bead blasted it...coated it...put new oil-proof non asbestos lining on it with new brass rivets...1 day service...$90.00   as far as taking it apart...wasnt to hard.....mine has the skid plate...so other then that....was like...6 bolts....removed assembly that help shoe together...slid it off....since mine is clean now..if you need pics..i can send or post some...paul

I just had mine rebuilt on my 64....I got everything from Nissan except the rod (had the rod made) and had my mechanic rivet the pads on. Lining $6x2 $12, brass rivets $.20x20 $4, cam $12x2 $24, rod $16, mechanic $25....total $81. I didn't think about getting it coated like Paul, I should have. You can still get the brake handle assembly from Nissan too for around $100 but I didn't need one.
