Repeat this with the cup and spring on the other parking brake shoe. Take the shoes off the backing plate. Disengage the parking brake lever from the cable. Check all parts for wear and damage, paying special attention to metal-to-metal contact points. Replace worn or damaged parts. Check the parking brake drum surface inside the brake disc for score marks, cracks, deep scratches, and hard spots. Apply a small amount of high-temperature brake grease to the friction points of the backing plate and adjuster screw assembly. Reverse the removal steps to install the brake shoes.
