Includes anti-lock brakes, disc, drum, power and hydraulic brake services diagnostics and procedures for domestic and imported 1996 GMC K1500 Pickup cars and light trucks from 1990+.
Power Brake Units -> Delco-Moraine Brake Boosters -> General Service
Vehicle: 1996 GMC K1500 Pickup Sierra 4.3 V6 GAS

Service Brake
Except 1992-94 Lumina APV, Silhouette & Trans Sport
These brakes have self-adjusting shoe mechanisms that assure correct lining-to-drum clearances at all times. The automatic adjusters operate only when the brakes are applied as the vehicle is moving rearward or when the car comes to an uphill stop.
Although the brakes are self-adjusting, an initial adjustment is necessary after the brake shoes have been relined or replaced, or when the length of the adjusting screw has been changed during some other service operation.
