A brake assembly adapted to be mounted on a motor vehicle axle member and constructed to permit removal of the assembly brake shoes for relining without removal of the brake drum or other structure located outboard of the assembly. The assembly includes a spider abutting the outboard surface of and secured to a radial flange formed on the axle. The spider carries brake shoes located inboard of the spider-axle flange interface that are held in place by brake shoe return springs attached to the shoes and the inboard face of the spider at a point easily accessible from inboard of the assembly. Lateral brake shoe movement along the axle axis is prevented by brake shoe retaining members normally located outboard and inboard of the brake shoes. The inboard of these retaining members are removable to permit the brake shoes to be removed from the assembly by inboard movement thereof.
