Rear Brakes 97 Signature

[u8at711]

Need help locating the information to order up some new rotors and pads, + hardware for my 97 Signature,
heres a photo of the rear drivers side rotor.
The Shop that will be doing the work wanted me to do all the leg work to locate the parts. Saves me a few $,,,

If you haven’t already tried I would Call Monaco and ask. They have been very helpful in the past.

Wow! That rotor is really worn out.
These Coaches used standard heavy truck parts but to order parts you need to know the (brake) manufacture and model used.

To get that info you need to pull the wheel to see the tag on the caliper.

I think this is what you have, but I cant be 100% sure.

Thanks for that, But I've got Meritor Brakes,
Found an old receipt from a brake job that was done 6 years ago, heard that the front and rear brakes are all the same part numbers. So Ordered them up today should have them by Thursday. Once everything is completed I'll post up all the info and part numbers.

Glad you found the part numbers! While I don't need the part numbers yet, it's only a matter of time. I appreciate having a place to find the part numbers when something goes wrong. Good luck!

wow that is pretty bad, considering that the rear only does about 30% of the braking. and in only 6 years

30% of braking may be in cars but heavy vehicle rear brakes do 50% or more of the braking, depending on the weight back there.

Look at any heavy vehicles brakes and you can see that they are larger in the rear.

If the front brakes were doing 70% of the stopping, the front tires would be kicking in the antilock at any hard stop and wearing down the front tires fast.

The brakes got serviced because one of the front brakes were hanging up, they charged the RV place for 2 front rotors but only replaced one, that was 2014, in 2018 I got stuck in the mud and had to get towed out, figured that all my 2019 driving had a hung up rear wheel, when I got the suspension bushings replaced this year the shop told me about the rear brake, now that I’ve been educated some on this topic, all 4 wheels will be getting serviced/ inspected yearly

Making some progress, more than half way done, taking my time on this, waiting on some greese for the slide pins, going to remove the anti-seize that was used,

Not sure what the difference is, but my part number is different.
3218Y1065

[u8at711]

1996 built Monaco, on dmv it's a 1997

Brake rotor Meritor part 3218Y1065
Brake shoes Meritor part KIT15625PM
Slides hardware Meritor part KIT15016

these parts, brake rotor shoes and hardware kit was used on the front of my coach when the service shop did the work a few years back,
these parts also work in the rear, ON MINE, I ordered bearing and seals that were also on that original parts list and they did not fit. That's ok, I'll replace them when they hit the 10 year mark or next time the brakes need done up front.

Front Bearings = SET413TRB s5f
other front bearing= SET406TRB s5e
Front seal = 35066 s6b
front kit clevis = R810005

I did not pull out the rear seals to look for part numbers,
the rear bearing had Timkin 580
and SKF 594A If that is not a 5 it's an S .

Hope this helps someone

You have several part number that are used in my Disc Brakes. There is also a update return spring for the slide pins. Helps the brakes to return to a neutral position. I have installed them on all brake slide pins on my coach. Meritor part number KIT15018 I hope that's not anti seize on the slide pins as a lubricant
