    Excellent explanation to release the trapped brake drum! Once I get the drum off I use my 4 inch grinder with a flap disc to remove the lip that has trapped the brake shoes. Usually the drum still has plenty of life left.

      Thank you G RP, using a flap disc on that edge is an awesome idea and you're right. I felt that they had another 15k or so left on them. I need to pick up a smaller angle grinder for my home shop.

    My drum was seized after the car sat in storage over the Winter. I was getting ready to thread in some bolts to force it off, when I found this video. So glad! You saved me a LOT of extra frustration and damage. Thank you.

      @@Lifeinlivingcolors There is a little bent piece of metal the keeps that cog from loosening. You will need to feel around for it. Pull it away from the cog using a pick tool, which would be towards the inside wheel well, then while holding it away from the cog roll it up if working on the passenger side and down if working on the driver's side. Yeah, it is a bit of a pain until you do it once.

    I always forget which why to turn that cog. When you under the car and contorted it's easy to be disoriented to which way it's moving. Great video.

      Hi David, Thank you for commenting and kindness. Yeah, I hear you. What I do is look at how much thread I can see through the peep hole. Less thread showing means the shoes will be closer together (aka moving away from the drum), more thread showing is further apart (moving closer to the drum).

    Struggling with similar issue, had the shoes and hardware replaced but same worn drums and my car feels like crap vibrating, drove about 2 weeks like this and finally got my new drums in. Did it solve your vibration issue? Thanks for video I need to fix this and let you know it goes

    • @vbared
      @vbared  Рік тому +1

      Hello Make it Nice, Thank you for commenting. Yes, switching out the drum solved it for me. The old drums were so old that about 1/8 of an inch of material was worn away on the inside. My advice would be to inspect the inside surface of the drum. If there is a groove worn into it, I would replace them.
      It's a simple repair just take your time, clean all the hardware really well, and put a little bearing grease on the pin that inserts into the adjustment spur.
      Best of luck with your repairs!

      @@makeit.primetime99 Great job making the repair. Figuring out the cause of vibrations is a pain. Does it vibrate all the time? If so look for bends in your rim, vibrations at certain speeds? If so check wheel balance. Sometimes a stick on weight can fling off or does the vibration happen just when braking?

    the manual for my 2012 yaris states the wheel nuts should be tightened to 76fp. i was going to change my brake drums but having seen this about the 'lip' on the edge i don't think i'll bother - looks like too much hassle.

    • @vbared
      @vbared  2 роки тому

      Hello Edward, Thank you for commenting. Yes, you're 100% on the money. Thank you for pointing it out. I should have used the 76ft lbs indicated in the service manual in the video. I'll add a correction in the description.
      The lip worn into the inside of the drum brake surface may not be deep on a car with lower miles. My Yaris had about 350k on the odometer before I changed out the drums.
      Best of luck with your repairs.
