How hard is it to change the rear brakes on a ford laser?

Hi,



Just wondering how hard it is to change the breaks on a ford laser. I think that they are drum brakes. Someone said it wasn't very difficult.



Thanks to everyone in advanceHow hard is it to change the rear brakes on a ford laser?corset thanks

never done a laser

done sierra, escort ect



its not simple

but i would say if you take a pic, before you start removing the springs, and your a smart lady :) - you will be able to get it back, just remember they are adjustable, so if they dont fit back in, move the little moon shaped bit/cam with the teeth on to its other extremity....



front are easier, as long as you have the right tool, which might be a 9ml hex, which im guessing you wont have, non standard size, cant remmember if u need for back

when doing front remember to compress the POT before you refit. this means get the cup bit with the tube on, and squeeze it with all your might, might have to stand on it if ure little.... its a cup within a cup, kind thing, break fluid between the cups.. :)How hard is it to change the rear brakes on a ford laser?Go here and fill out the make, model and year. Then decide for yourself. If you have a good jack and the proper tools, it isn't that hard to do. You may have to take the drums to a shop and have them turned, but that shouldn't cost much. You can usually find out about turning the drums from the place you buy the linings.

Is it true that Cummins is going to start contracting with Ford Super Duty's and leave Dodge?

i heard somewhere Ford is gonna have Cummins engines now for their diesels... is that true? if so whats gonna happen with the Powerstrokers? and whats gonna happen to Dodge?Is it true that Cummins is going to start contracting with Ford Super Duty's and leave Dodge?Ford owns stock in Cummins. They currently use Cummins engins in the F650/750 trucks as an option. Dodge is contracted with Cummins to use the engines. Ford and Navistar's contract is ending soon after which time ford will be using a diesel engine of their own design called the Scorpion. Dodge was rumored to be looking into Mercedes Benz diesels after the end of their Cummins contractIs it true that Cummins is going to start contracting with Ford Super Duty's and leave Dodge?wrong totally wrong. Ford is developing their own Diesel 6.7 its going to ge called the scorpion. Good bye to the power stroke name/international it was a nightmare starting with the 6.0l. Single turbo (going back to Garrett) and the exhaust manifolds are going to be mounted transverse. Meaning they run inside the engine valley and not on the outside of the cylinder head. It will have two water pumps and two radiators. One for low pressure system and one for the high pressure system. It is set to be arriving (if all goes well) mid to late 2010Is it true that Cummins is going to start contracting with Ford Super Duty's and leave Dodge?I heard the same story at a Ford Tech session as Simon states

    How much is a ford pickup worth that just caught on fire?

    It's a 1977 Ford F250 camper special extended cab with a 460. It's gigantic, and the body is in good shape. It sat for like 5 years. I just fired it up and drove it and it's leaking out the bottom and the whole thing caught on fire. Is it worth anything at this point? How much would I get if I scrapped it? ThanksHow much is a ford pickup worth that just caught on fire?You can sell it for parts on Ebay.

    Otherwise I say about $150 for the whole truck.How much is a ford pickup worth that just caught on fire?Scrap is going for $300 a ton or so now. The cat converter alone is worth $100 and the 460 might bring you some bux too! The front clip is worth a couple of hundred right there.



    Part it out, THEN scrap it, you may get $1000 for it all together.How much is a ford pickup worth that just caught on fire?1000 bucks if you are lucky How much is a ford pickup worth that just caught on fire?
    i say no more than 200 for scrap metal and thats if they take it.

    I need to find out what a Ford F -1 truck...possibly a 1948 not restored would be worth ? The flathead motor to it is in the garage but would need to be put back in it.

    Why does my 2001 ford focus stall when it at stoplight and slow traffic?

    i have a 2001 ford focus that i recently change the oil, spark plug, cables, and plus i flush the transmission. My car has 91,000 miles only and some people say it can be the idle or the timing belt. my car stall when im stuck in traffic and sometime in stoplight, but it turn right back on. what can be the problem.Why does my 2001 ford focus stall when it at stoplight and slow traffic?If the check engine light is not on, then it is not one of the monitored sensors. Many of the early Focus models had fuel pump problems. That would be my suspicion.



    BTW, since you're approaching 100,000 miles, you should have the timing belt replaced soon. Around $200, depending on the labor rate in your area.



    All the bestWhy does my 2001 ford focus stall when it at stoplight and slow traffic?Mike seems like you know some about these issues. I have the same problem as questioner, but my has engine light on and it is 2006 ford focus. I took it to the mech. and he told me to put injector cleaner, I did as he said and it help a little....

    what about oxygen sensor???

    Why does my 2001 ford focus stall when it at stoplight and slow traffic?probably the throttle positioning sensor bad,could also be the throttle body and fuel injectors need cleaning.
