Great video with helpful information. I have a question at 8 minutes on your video, you're cleaning what you called a "actuator/slider". I have a 95 Club Car DS which has a self adjustment mechanism in the same place as your "actuator/slider". You cleaned and lubricant the "actuator/slider". Should my self adjustment mechanism slide back and forth or do I tighten the nut on the back plate so the self adjustment mechanism doesn't move? Thanks for your reply.
I have a 2010 Club Car DS. What about if I have to press down hard on my brake pedal to stop? What would be the solution to help improve the brakes on that?
Got a big problem. Passenger side cable appears to be to long. There is no tension on the lower springs. Passenger rear wheel dosen't brake. Could the sliding actuator be broken? Any suggestions? Rear left wheel brakes fine.
This video is great. The only thing I noticed that you put identical shoes on one wheel (passenger side) Shoe lining is shorter on one shoe and longer on the other shoe. I think that shoe with shorter lining is toward the end of the cart, has to do something with wheel forward rotation. Would like to hear from you with comments to my comment. Other then that your video and explanations are great and very clean. Thank you!
Okay, it’s only the issue on the driver side. I might not be fixing the correct problem. Passenger side pads look fine. Replaces leaf spring bushing but I’m still getting a “dragging” noise…
Thanks for posting this! Whoever designed these brakes can go and take a flying leap! Those clips are the worst. Only took 3 hours to complete. 2.5 for the first one then 30 minutes for the other one I figured out what I was doing...
@@grokshop that cart takes J10 brake shoes and you put J17 brake shoes on it. I bet you had to turn the adjuster way out to get the brakes to work. They will work for awhile but eventually you wont be able to make an adjustment anymore. Plus you have to tighten the cable alot and that will just stretch your cables out. Not trying to be a jack ass but I've been fixing golf cars for 35 years and I've seen this mistake quite a few times. J10 brake shoes will work way better.
Oh no this is great to have your expertise. I guess I would say that if you see this mistake a lot, it might be because there appears to be little documentation on the topic. I can take a little cover in that :) But perhaps you know of some? I just put this into a google: "j10" "j17" "brake shoes" & got a mere 3 pages & almost nothing on the actual topic. The closest I could find is: www.buggiesgonewild.com/gas-yamaha/140432-yamaha-g1-brake-issues.html And that appears specific to Yamahas. But I figure there must be something to your claim because we see the "17" stamped on many of the shoes. But yeah, the shoes have been stellar. The adjustor was turned about 5-6 clicks from full-in.
@@grokshop it's common because the parts people dont work on carts they just sell parts. Let's say you called me and said you needed brake shoes and drums for a 1993 club car. I know the shoes and drums because I work on them and club car only used one brake shoe during that time. It also goes to show you how bad the internet can be because you cant fond the right info. I guarantee you that j10 shoes belong on your cart. Like I said before they will work for a while but will lose the ability to adjust correctly. If you still have your old shoes laying around take a close look at the bottom portion of the shoe. J17s have a smaller end than the j10s and are a tad shorter. Also on your cart there is no front shoe or back shoe they are both the same but you didnt state that in your video so I'm not sure what you did there. I'm trying to help.
@@michaelthomas2653 Actually, I did mention that this cart does not have specific trailing & leading shoes @ 5:50. And, I never doubted that you were trying to help or even that you were not right. However, I am in the business of sharing information. The internet is neither good nor bad, its just technology. But its the best technology on the planet for sharing information. If you are in the business of selling golf cart shoes & have some good inside-baseball information like this, that's great. But keeping it to yourself does no one any good. My recommendation to you would be - rather than scoffing at the internet, and being bitter about lost sales, make yourself a nice blog post explaining this information & back it up with references. I just might drive some business your way. Probably more than you realize.
Ebay has listings for the 2 types of shoes..One for 1982-94 and another for 1995 to present...
Ha for once a pro video with real-world experience! Awesome.
Great information! Thanks for posting!

Your an awesome instructor’! Thank you
Really good video
I have a ‘96 DS, are the shoes done the same way as yours?
My manual adjustment broke so I had to take the axle out and replace the back
Awesome, who are so informative, great video
The “preload” you spoke of, how do we get that out. I can’t get the external brake shoe cover off, mallet or prying 😢

Great Video
Your video helped me tremendously. Thanks for making it!
The only thing I wanted to see was how the bottom springs went on. Why would you skip that?
Try watching at 11:00...
Fully watch the video 🕵️♂️
Video starts at 4:15
Dude is sending those brake linings into space!
Calipers, measurements......Christmas! Swap em. Moving on.
Glad to see I am not the only one who works in flip flops lol!

Pretty sure club car stop making DS after 2004
If you worry that brake shoes will get you sick, you need a hazmat suit 24/7
Didn't play
You know you put the wrong brakes shoes on that cart right?
How u figure?
