OK..you all know my son bought a Volvo 1989 740 turbo....Well I was doing a safety inspection on all major components..well I got to the brakes....found out it has no parking brakes..I found all the new parts in the trunk... Now my problem...I do not know the way the set in and how they are connected..its a combo of Disk for primary brakes..and shoes for the parking brakes... if any one has a diagram of how they are installed it would be very nice....I have checked all the Major car care books and none show the parking brake install.... also if any one over the pond can get a hold of a volvo repair manual from volvo...for this car..let me know..I am interested in buying one..in English...LOL.... Thanks Guys Al
No..none of the haynes..chiltons...have any info on the parking brakes..also the info in those books is very vague ..I have a haynes and it is awful as far as info and procedures...there are no real Volvo repair manuals in the States....and I can not buy a Volvo factory manual here also.... Al
Al I found this on Ebay although I'm not sure exactly if its what you are looking for: eBay Motors: VOLVO 740 760 780 1982 - 1992 OEM SERVICE REPAIR MANUAL (item 330192904189 end time Dec-02-07 21:30:12 PST) I just did a search on Ebay homepage for "Volvo 740 manual" and several things came up.
