Anyone attempting this at home, be careful removing that hub & bearing, pulling it off can damage the inner bearing seal and start letting in water and cause it to fail early. You should be able to do the brake shoe replacement without removing the hub. Other than that, good work in making the job of reinstalling all those springs look so easy!

I've been working on a ford ka 2008, it's pretty similar to the 500, i had a problem getting the drum off, this video really helped. We don't have the extra cash i have too try DIY, thanks a lot.

Thank you. I didn't know how to get the cap off for the centre nut. Good job!

This helped me replace the rear drum break pads on my RAM 700 (Fiat Palio Adventure). Greetings from Mexico!

Thanks makes it look good made a note of the tools to have

Thanks for the video realy helpful

Thanks Lewis I found where I was looking for 🙂, my mother by law's car is a Ford Ka... just the same technology!

On my wife's 500, one of the drums was stuck badly, I used a tip I saw elsewhere, the drum location holes are threaded M10, you can put a pair of bolts in them, turn them a bit at a time & it will pull the drum off the hub & shoes. One set of linings fell off hers as well! For some reason these drums seem to stick badly if left parked up outside for a length of time. If you have to leave it parked up, best leave the handbrake off (leave in gear obvs).

Cool vid :) just a note though you don't have to take the hub off.

Thank very helpfull please keep making video DIY for fiat 500

Very helpful

How to change Blake cables

The 500 would monster your Evo, what an animal of a machine! 😂

I'm a bit late to the party but your wheel cylinder was leaking and needed replacing. Just nip back in your time machine and fix it.

Good work getting it done. That crusty old drum has seen some salty winter roads! I wouldn't bother taking the hub and bearing off (but I am a lazy bodger, at heart). One bit of advice, get yourself a decent torque wrench. That hub nut should be 280nm, if I recall. Probably fine guessing it, on a Fiat 500; but get a Torque setting wrong on the Evo and you might find yourself in a hedge. :)

Next time I do mine I'll try the tyre thing 😂

Do you live in Jurassic Park? I swear I just heard a teradactyl

You dont actually need to remove the hub and bearing

why the frick do cars even use drum brakes anymore :') terrible.

STOP met die kkkkkkkk reclames!!!
