Okay here are my pointers after using this video! 1) There is no replacement for cutters when grabbing springs, needle nose pliers will slip. 2) Be sure to grease ALL contact points, my car had 8 of them. Be sure to look at the bottom meeting points too. 3) You might not need to change your drum brakes if they are squeaking, you might just need to disassemble and re-grease. My car with over 100k still had the same amount of shoe left as a new set. 4) Use brake cleaner on your new drum inside contact points to remove any gunk from the factory. 5) Put your car in neutral and spin the drums, they should bind up and stop pretty quickly. If you don't get it tight enough you will still roll with your e-brake fully engaged. If it is too tight, you will have to use screws to remove the drum and start over. Take the time to get this right.

Scotty is the best! Only problem is that if you're old shoes are worn down far enough then the rotor won't come off. Unless you open up the automatic adjuster before you take it off. On my Yaris this can be done by opening a little hole plugged by a rubber plug and turning the gear with a flat head. It was a bummer that this information was not in this video because I ended up snapping pieces of my brake assembly by trying to wrench it off with the screws like Scotty said.

Thanks for the instructions, it was pretty easy to do on my 97' Ford Mondeo, I actually ended up changing the cylinders as well and bleed the rear brake lines, it's braking really well except for the handbrake, it won't hold, you actually have to pull it hard to stop the car on a hill, I've adjusted both drums and the handbrake leveler but it still requires force to pull it and lock the rear wheels. Brakes are fine otherwise, they're holding up very well, no weird noises or ABS errors.

Just replaced my drum brakes... 1999 Ford ranger... It was a serious learning experience. I wanna do them some although it took me 4 hrs for the rear

thanks for the help. I had such a hard time trying to figure out what was clicking!. I simply removed drum and out came broken shoes!

This is a great video, fast, to the point, and with a lil humor. Is it just me or does anyone else feel like Joe Pesci just taught us how to replace drum brakes ? Anyways great vid dude !

another good tip to anyone I found when I did mine is take a photo with a digital camera and print it and copy it Scotty took me ages to get the springs back on when I did mine but I learnt even if it took me all day Great video Thanks Ian

@moofushu You have to put a pressure tester gauge in the number one cylinder, then see if the pressure rises as you crank it toward what you assume is TDC Scotty

sheared bolts have to be replaced, and if the calliper mount is ruined, you have to buy the whole assembly and replace that too. If you have drum e brakes, they adjust by tightening the nuts on the cable. If you have disc e brakes,they are not adjustable.
