How can a Backing Plate be serviced and repaired on Dodge Avenger?

To service and repair the backing plate, first ensure safety by isolating the master cylinder from the brake hydraulic system by using a brake pedal holding tool to depress the brake pedal past one inch (25 mm) and hold it in that position. Next, raise and support the vehicle, then remove the three wheel mounting nuts followed by the tire and wheel assembly. Access the drum brake shoes and remove them from the support plate. Use a 10 mm box wrench to compress the retainer fingers on the end of the parking brake cable housing, then pull the cable housing out of the support plate. Disconnect the brake tube at the wheel cylinder and remove the wheel cylinder attaching screws to take the wheel cylinder out of the support plate. If a wheel speed sensor is present, remove the screw fastening the sensor head in the rear of the hub and bearing and take the sensor head out. Finally, remove the four bolts securing the hub and bearing, support plate, and spacer to the knuckle, then take the hub and bearing, support plate, and spacer out as an assembly from the knuckle, separating the spacer and hub and bearing from the support plate afterward.

How to install a Backing Plate on the brake on Dodge Avenger?

First, contact the hub with the bearing through the support plate before installing the brake backing plate, and install the spacer on the rear of the assembly. After that install the hub and bearing and support plate and spaper as an assembly on knuckle. Install the four bolts on the hub and bearing, support plate, and spacer to the knuckle, tightening them to 105 Nm (77 ft. lbs.). Before reusing, clean and apply Mopar(R) Stud AND Bearing Mount Adhesive or equivalent to the traces of the original mounting bolt thread. Use new mounting bolts. Place the parking brake cable in the hole in the brake support plate and push the cable housing in until the fingers of the retainer locks into place. In the case that the wheel speed sensor is installed, the wheel speed sensor head is to be installed into the rear of the hub and bearing. Tighten the wheel speed sensor head mounting screw to 10 Nm (89 in. lbs.). Mount the wheel cylinder to the brake support plate and tighten the mounting screws to 13 Nm (115 in. lbs.). Join the brake tube to the wheel cylinder and tighten the tube nut to 17 Nm (150 in. lbs.). Using Mopar (R) Brake Lubricant or equivalent, apply lubrication to the contact areas of the shoe on the support plate and on the anchor. Install the drum brake shoes and drum, adjusting the shoes as necessary. Fit the tire and wheel assembly, then torque the wheel mounting nuts to 135 Nm (100 ft. lbs.). Keeping the rear wheel slowly rotating, check that the brake drum just lightly drags on the shoes. Lower the vehicle and remove the brake pedal holding tool. Bleed the affected wheel cylinder as required. Make sure to test the vehicle to ensure brakes work.
