I just got my own 94 pickup and stumbled upon your account just in time for my upcoming much needed brake job. Going to be my first time doing drum brakes, I very much appreciate the detailed video!
I just had my wheel off the rear of my 1992 Toyota SR5 Extended Cab /. 4 wheel drive truck and was wondering how does this drum come of!! Thanks for the Video!! Would love to see you do a Video on the Timing Belt Replacement for a 3.0L V6 Sngine….
If a customer ever brings me a vehicle with that V6, I will do a video. The drum just slides off, however they can get stuck on from heat and rust. If yours is stuck, you will want to wire brush off the rust around the center. This is where the drum centers around the the part of the axle that is sticking out. Then spray a little penetrating oil around were you removed the rust and dirt. Give the oil about 5 minutes to soak in. You should find two threaded holes in the drum. They should be 6mm 1.00 pitch. I have seen some the next size up. Get some really hardened bolts of this size and screw them into those holes. Tighten each one a little bit at a time equally, meaning don't tighten one as much as you can and then the other. Just turn each bolt like a quarter turn at a time each. This will push the drum off. Let me know if that worked for you.
I did away with that u clip and put snap ring on my 92 Toyota pickup cause it needed to be improved from factory troubles and work's perfectly fine and next time I need to replace the rear brakes I won't have any trouble next time
Hey Rod. I wish I could’ve seen your video sooner. I had the annoying problem of having the wrong brake shoes. They looked identical but upon trying to put them on they didn’t fit. Finally got the right ones. Quick question. Everything else seemed to go smooth but now with everything put on and doing a test drive the E brake doesn’t work. Could it be I need to adjust the adjuster more out? I was thinking either thats the problem or they gave me the wrong size brake drums. Thanks for the video.
What would you suggest is too worn for the shoes? I thought I was metal to metal but when I actually had pulled the drums off I saw I had a similar amount left on the shoes as these old ones I’d say. Maybe a 3/16”, or an 1/8”. I have the same truck. A grinding noise when braking brought me to the rears, after checking out and clearing the fronts as totally fine. So far I ended up just adjusting the adjuster so when I put the drum back on I feel some descent resistance when turning. I’m thinking I never got to metal to metal because the boots were not properly bled after first doin on these several years ago! And or the boot just couldn’t push any more or something about them adjusters never getting adjusted after shoe wore down a lot. And what I started to hear was just the little bit of shoes reaching the drum. Still have to test it out after adjusting and bleeding my boots some.
Ok thanks! great to know at this moment! All Toyota would give me was their part number for the shoes for my VIN # when I really just need the size as my local auto st or e has two diff sizes for this truck. The part # they gave me was 449535131. You wouldn’t happen to know how to figure out what size those ones are ?
I have found with Toyota, especially older one's, parts may look similar but they made a special different part for every car, and usually many different pasts for the same car.
I am not sure what you are asking. There is no pin that goes into the emergency brake lever. You may have to drive out the emergency brake lever pin out of the shoe and use the old one. If that is what you are asking, I show that you have to drive it back in with a hammer. Can you explain what you are asking, maybe at what point in the video did I lose you?
You know, I thought about your question and realized what you were asking. All I did is just slide the adjuster back, there is no hole for it to catch in. You can see me pushing it into place. However the view is blocked. That pin sticking out on the adjuster is to keep the emergency brake lever away from the adjuster.
I am not sure what nails you are referring to. If you mean those pins pressed in the brake shoes, all that takes is a socket or some kind of round metal to the side it will be knocked out to and a punch. If you are referring to the pins for the hold down springs, you can use just a regular pair of pliers to grab hold of the locking washer and twist. If I have missed what you mean, please explain.
I'm trying to do the rear brakes on my 93 toyota 2wd pickup and for some reason the guy that had the truck before me took out all the parking brake components out of both rear drums. now im trying to track all it down and put it back together although i cant find a single place that sells the parking brake lever. You know of anyone/business that will sell that lever or a parking brake kit? pretty sure they are 47601 and 46702. Thanks
I will look, I have a few places that might but contact me through my sight, it will be easier to get the information to you that way. rodsshop.org/contact/
I would think so, drum brake designs are all about the same. Some parts may look and fit differently but the replacement procedure is pretty much the same.
Excellent video. Unfortunately, UA-cam has added so many commercials that it's difficult to watch. I got what I needed, but ended up angry with UA-cam. I doubt they'll care much. lol
P.S. Here's a warning to viewers. I had metal to metal to metal on the rear shoes. Had to pry one drum off with a crow bar as one "keeper spring" had failed and allowed the shoe to bind on the drum when trying to remove. I actually stripped out the removal threads on one drum so had to use a crow bar. Bent some parts in the process but got it off. Won't wait so long to change shoes next time. And I was able to pound the bent parts back close enough to use. I've got 289K miles on my little "motor home." 1992 Toyota pickup, 2-wheel drive.
You know I agree, but unfortunately, the music I would want to play, UA-cam will copyright claim me. So, they have a library of music to use and the list is long, so I grabbed what I thought had an upbeat beat to it out of being lazy. But thanks for watching my video anyway..
Thanks for the video... it made my job super easy. Very knowledgeable.

Wow! Thanks for the tips, I was struggling with this job but saw your techniques + now much easier.
Glad I could help
Fantastic video. Thanks for putting this together.
Glad I could help
Thanks for the sharing 😀 everything went smoothly with your experience. A video is worth a 1000 words.👍👊
Great video. Doing the rear brakes this weekend... should help a bunch. Thank you!
Terrific camera work (the close-ups). Very helpful and well scripted.
Many thanks.
You’re a good teacher!! Awesome video tutorial
Very nice. Thank you sir. I’m sure it won’t be as easy as you made it look 😂🤦🏽♂️ Aloha from Hawaii

My daily driver is a 93. This is good info Thanks…
Glad I could help
great vid, only thing i can think of you could improve is rag or pan to catch that brake fluid...maybe do the wheel cylinder first ?
Thank you, an amazing video. Helped alot
Crows foot works awesome to get brake drum off. 😊
Thank you for the video.

If your shoes are an 1/8" thick, you need to change them. Also, those shoes are semi-metallic, so they will make a grinding noise when they get thin.

Either …10 by 1.99 or 2.21

No vidéo for front drums to disc converter ? For LN 85hilux 4x2
Funny my 4 Camry’s rear drums are exactly the same. Wonder if parts are interchangeable?

well done video.thanks
did my ball joints on my 89 a while back and they used 3 diffrent kinds that year......
How'd you get the pin on the adjuster into the hole on the emergency brake lever ?...
I am not sure what you are asking. There is no pin that goes into the emergency brake lever. You may have to drive out the emergency brake lever pin out of the shoe and use the old one.

Hey is there another way to get those nails out or do I absolutely have to buy that tool too😤
I am not sure what nails you are referring to. If you mean those pins pressed in the brake shoes, all that takes is a socket or some kind of round metal to the side it will be knocked out to and a punch. If you are referring to the pins for the hold down springs, you can use just a regular pair of pliers to grab hold of the locking washer and twist. If I have missed what you mean, please explain.
You need to add break grease to the shoe rub points too.
I actually had put some on the backing plate but forgot to show that.

Will this work for the 88 toyota pickup
I would think so, drum brake designs are all about the same. Some parts may look and fit differently but the replacement procedure is pretty much the same.
Nowadays everything is bonded from not remaning old shoes anymore. So no need for rivets although I do prefer riveted shoes.
Get genuine parts if you want to avoid fitment and quality issues.
Don't get tempted by cheap aftermarket prices, you get what you pay for.
Well sadly, the dealer based of VIN number was also giving us the wrong parts, so with Toyota, you can't count on original parts being correct either.
Excellent video. Unfortunately, UA-cam has added so many commercials that it's difficult to watch. I got what I needed, but ended up angry with UA-cam. I doubt they'll care much. lol

Video was a big help and I feel your pain. These brakes are a pile of 💩
Nice vid! only what's with the music! Please leave that next time, it gets on my nerves.
You know I agree, but unfortunately, the music I would want to play, UA-cam will copyright claim me. So, they have a library of music to use and the list is long, so I grabbed what I thought had an upbeat beat to it out of being lazy. But thanks for watching my video anyway..
