Excellent video. One minor suggestion for the drum brake newbie is to spend a little more time with the seating of the adjuster arm and spring. Believe it or not, I did not properly seat the adjuster arm fork into the brake pad first time around. Also, I did not have the hole in back of the hub to pull the shoe in. I used a strap and ratchet around both shoes in. Worked fine. Thanks again. The video is great and a h😊uge help.

@cmscustoms4400 2 жыл бұрын

Ok so I followed this exact process. My brakes were actually pretty decent but I changed them anyways because the drums were rotted. Now I adjusted the drag properly, but my brakes feel very soft at the foot and don’t engage until I’m 1/2 way to the floor. Do I need to increase the drag? The tensioner with the star adjuster in it had way more threads showing when I took my drums off. Maybe 14 threads were showing and now maybe 4?

Great video! I have an 05 Tacoma PreRunner that has 160,000 miles and still runs great and is mechanically sound. Probably because I can work on it myself. I attempted doing the rear brakes, which are shoes a couple of years ago and finally went to the dealer to get them done. After watching this video, and I am certain I can now do the job when it comes up again. The "diagonal cutting pliers" appear to make removing a number of the springs and clips for the shoes a "must have" tool. What size diagonal cutting plies did you use?

@stevanrose7439 2 жыл бұрын

It’s not good practice to use side cutters to remove the springs. What I have found in the past is needle nose pliers with heat shrink tubing on the noses. You don’t want to nick the springs because it could brake there. Even a fisherman doesn’t like to nick his hooks with pliers

I'm going to bleed the brakes, but before I do, I'd figure that I would ask the question on why the brake pedal is soft? I did pump the brakes multiple times and I also took it for a test drive.

Great video, but I'm confused about one thing; at the end, why is it necessary to adjust for drag on both sides simultaneously? Can't I do one side, slap the wheel on when done and then proceed to the opposite side and adjust for drag then? Is there something going on that won't allow to fully adjust for drag on one side first? Any clarification is greatly appreciated. Thank you 🙂

Great video, very well done. While I can see the advantage of using diagonal cutters for grip, watching the springs being grabbed by the cutters made me cringe. Unless I was having trouble holding on to the springs I would prefer to use needle nose pliers. One question, I didn't see or hear any mention of the parking brake. Not sure about the Tacoma but on many cars you need to release the parking brake first or the drum on one side won't come off, at least not without the risk of damage. I'm going to go pull mine off to inspect the brakes so I'll find out then. Not sure I'd hit the drum with a mall or hammer. If a rubber hammer or soft blow hammer won't get the drum off put two bolts into the holes on opposite sides of the drum (between the studs) and walk the drum off without beating on the drum. Thanks for the excellent instruction.

I have a 2011 Tacoma 2wd 2.7L 4 cyl. I assume these drums are the same as my truck. I have a problem. I had a shop do the drum brakes and shortly after they did it, I had a spongy brake pedal. I see no fluid leaks. Is it typically air in the lines causing that? Could it be an internal leak in my master cylinder? The pedal goes down a little over half way to the floor before it starts engaging. It's kinda scary. I want to bleed the lines first, then go from there. Anyone have advice on this?
