    My DP motorhome's slack adjusters seems to have some white color grease in it (later i learned it may be some clay type grease). Before I realized the different grease, I applied 2 short-pumps of red high-temp grease I used for my entire chassis / drive-train. Can this small amount of a different grease cause a problem? Can I flush most of it out by pumping the right grease through the slack-adjuster?

    I've had the luck to work for a few companies who's policy was to start brake work at the drums and shoes first measuring thickness of drum lining and shoe depth inspecting for cracks also. Then cam play and finally throw under shop air ending with an applied bleed down system test. Good video, informative.

    You missed putting anti-seize on the clevis pins. is there a reason you don't show that? Stainless pins aren't going to prevent the friction that occurs from lack of lubrication. Those clevis pin holes are going to rust and close up causing the pins to seize anyway. Must have missed that in the DFMEA?

    • @accuridecorp
      @accuridecorp 3 роки тому

      Hello Christopher - our engineers advise that applying anti-sieze is an option but not required.

    • @christopherjamieson4237
      @christopherjamieson4237 3 роки тому

      @@accuridecorp Your engineers need to spend more time under vehicles. The friction at that point (among the many on a foundation drum brake) reduces the efficiency on the force transfer to the shoes. It also creates additional labor when the pin seizes up during service and replacement. It’s a poor application for a clevis to begin with. Why make it worse by installing them w/o lubrication? On long pushrods you introduce considerable bending moments that can fail the rod. Even with standard rods the moment created can cause the service pushrod to wear against the chamber stud housing. But that’s not your problem right?
