I'm planning on doing a complete brake overhaul, this weekend, on my '96 850 Wagon and I'm generating a list of last-minute parts I'm going to need from the dealer. I've already got rotors, pads, shims and disk brake grease. For fun, I also went hog-wild and bought some braided brake hoses.
I'm going to have my wife pick up, from the dealer: caliper bolts, emergency brake shoes and crush gaskets/washers.
One of my questions is, since the emergency brakes are of the shoe variety, are there springs/clips which need to be replaced? Does Volvo have a spring/clip kit, or are these included with the shoes?
Also, I assume that the brake hoses interface to the calipers with crush gaskets/washers. Are these the only gaskets/washers needed when replacing the hoses?
Sorry for all the questions, but I'm trying to come up with as accurate, and specific, a list as possible 'cause my wife will be picking up these parts and I want to arm her with the complete picture.
Thanks.
