    Do not pinch the brake line. As long as nobody applies the brakes you won't have any problems. There's not enough pressure to pop the cylinders out when the brakes are at rest, unless something else is wrong with the vehicle. Also, avoid touching the brake lining on the shoes. Otherwise a very good video. Really good idea to remove that c-clip before removing anything else.

      There's residual brake fluid. Just like calipers

      ​@@EricVonHunterit's not residual. It is full of fluid but not pressurized. Never pinch brake hoses.

    The first pair of shoe brakes took me 3 hours. By the second I was able to do it in 30 minutes. Love the video. Super easy to understand and very informative. The cameraman did their best! Didn’t hurt the flow of the video for me.

    Jim: Thank you so much for putting out your content. I just did my rear brakes drum brakes following your video, and my wife's front and rear disc brakes foillowing another one of your videos. I'm definitely no mechanic, nor even a car enthusiast. However, I'm very grateful to have the savings that the labor would have cost here in a major metropolitan area. I also like the fact that I know the job is done right. My 13 year old daughter worked along with me, and now she's learned a new skill as well. Sincerly, thank you again.

    God bless you man! I found this video very helpful and was able to do my own drum brake replacement. Unfortunately the drum was stuck and the pilot hole was damaged so had to use force and broke one of the springs. I'll have to pickup replacement tomorrow. Funny thing is when i picked up the shoes, the guy asked if i wanted the springs as well and I said no...live and learn.

      How did you adjust the ebrake bro??? After doing my rear drums my ebrake was loose and didn’t hold at all…..I think you adjust it by the star adjustment but then I’ve seen videos where you have to remove the center console and theirs an adjustment nut at the base of the ebrake, I’m confused??

  • @brianarsenault9281
    @brianarsenault9281 4 роки тому +7

    At the 10.26 min/sec you mentioned sometime I found very important; when I did my brakes I didn't pinch off the brake hose (to relieve the pressure) and as a result brake fluid started leaking from the brake cylinder. Unfortunately, as a result of missing this step (not pinching the hose) it later turned into a problem where I had to replace the wheel cylinder.

    • @TherealDannyO
      @TherealDannyO 2 роки тому +3

      Normally the brake cylinder doesn’t just pop out. Something was either wrong, or someone pressed the brake pedal forcing fluid into the cylinder and popping out those pistons. I’ve never pinched my brake line because if it’s old and stiff, it will crack/break, and now you have a whole other problem.

    The last vehicle I changed the drum brakes on was a 1987 S-10 Blazer which I still have, but don't drive any longer. It wasn't that easy, but it seemed to be easier than the ones on that modern car you worked on. I didn't know they still had drum brakes on them, but it is easier to work on with the right tools and I still have the ones I used on the Blazer. All the other vehicles I have use all new braking system and that makes it easier to work on.

    Never ever use anything to pinch rubber brake lines. Especially old rubber lines, you may cause a weakening or damage of the rubber and risk the line failure and catastrophic brake loss. Also this procedure can be completed in half the number of steps
    Removing the hold down springs from the shoes and then disengaging the bottom spring allows both shoes to be removed and disconneted without having to pry around behind the wheel hub.

    • @TuanTran-er9yl

      100% corrected.. never messed around with the rubber brake fluid line...you don't have to pinch the brake fluid line anyway.

  • @flinch622
    @flinch622 4 роки тому +1

    If that drum was rubbing on the backing plate because of rust... that would have knocked any rust scale loose that was too close for comfort. Just take a wire wheel to that groove, hit it with some ospho maybe [shield the machined surface of course] and put it back on. Replacement is needed when drum gets a lip in it, or gets heavily grooved by brake shoes staying in service down to the rivets, and the required machining makes diameter so large that safe wall thickness is destroyed. In most cases a light finish cut is what's needed. Rough cuts are to true up concentricity or big grooving damage [like a part coming loose and getting wedged under a shoe].

    So often, You Tube presenters know their subject but not videography ...
    lights, camera, script, sound.
    Lights that are not too much or little and don't cast shadows.
    Camera without shake, blur, getting the right angles and distance.
    Script to be not repetitive, not miss anything.
    Sound without extraneous noise, clear vocals, action sounds like hammering not too loud.

    Well done video Jim, easy to follow. I have a 02 Highlander and I did go ahead and get a new caliper, and rotor due to rust, the old one had frozen, it's the original. but now I can't get the new rotor over the parking brake. I didn't really do anything to the parking brake other than moving the star wheel to close the pads in, now the star wheel has stopped or stuck and won't close the pads any further. I still cant't get the rotor on. Do I need to clean with brake cleaner and keep working with the wheel? Idk, I'm afraid I'll mess it up even more. I hope I don't have to reassemble the parking brake. Thank you

    • @robertrlkatz6890
      @robertrlkatz6890 Рік тому

      Brake fluid does not pump out unless someone is touching the Brake pedal. Please do not pinch brake line, it will weaken the rubber to the point where it will crack as it ages. Everyone has seen how rubber as it ages dries out and when the moisture leaves the rubber it loses its pliability and begins to crack. Brakes are too important to do anything damaging to the brake line.
      Let it drip into a pan, it is too easy to replace a little brake fluid than rather jeopardizing a life. Just make sure no one pushes on the brake pedal while the shoes are not fully connected, unless you are replacing the wheel cylinders then it will not make any difference.

  • @fflynnful

    Some other tutorials show the parking brake cable being removed. It's better if you don't do that as Jim shows here. It is a lot of trouble to get the parking brake cable reattached to the parking brake lever. Jim doesn't take it off here, saving a lot of time and frustration.
