Thank you so much for this video! Me and my grandfather are building an 88 Silverado 1500, and we disassembled both rear drums, without taking pictures…. Your video was extremely helpful! Thank you again!
New wheel cylinder was wrong one ??? WHY ? Bore, They are the same. He said , too tight! The cylinders are shorter [left to right] for the STANDARD CAB TRUCKS!!! Longer for the EXTENDED CAB TRUCKS. Part numbers are different by one number.
Would be way easier if you removed that pointless oil drain pan out and sit down in front of it to work on the brakes.
Replacing everything in the back of my 89 Silverado today. This video was a big help. A few tips which I wouldn't have thought of. Thanks.
Well detailed video, wish there were more how to videos like yours, amazing !!
Did you leave the parking brake cables in hooked?
You forgot the install on the e brake braket! Damn it dude..
Did anyone else notice he didn’t pick his pliers up.? Lol good video it helped a lot thanks
Everytime i do brakes i fight with the springs. Your video is a blessing. I hate drum brakes but after this ill never struggle with drum brakes again. You actually make it look so eazy and fast.. I am doing brake on a 96 chevy k 1500 it was awful today. I look forward to doing this tomorrow i liked your channel and subscribed
This is a really nice demo sir. Well done and thank you. Blessings upon your house.
I have always HATED drum brakes! Last job was on a "68 Plymouth Valiant. I was so inexperienced. I got the new shoes on, after a difficult tear down, and could NOT get the drum back on the first side. I pounded and pounded just short of breaking anything. I cussed and swore more then any soldier I have ever met. After a consultation with my father-in-law, he came to the house to assist. Being a man with credible wrenching skills he quickly understood the error of my way and taught me that there was a long shoe and a short shoe. I had no prior knowledge of such an idea and I never made any visual connection when pulling shoes out of the box. I simply grabbed two shoes and wrestled all the springs and stuff back onto the backing plate. Thanks again.
Awesome! Thanks for the video. Yes drum brakes are a pain and every manufacturer is slightly different.
Guy is super at explaining it. Here in Iowa most of the yanks pull complete rear end. Makes brakes much easier 2 install
Thank you so much for this. I fought with the 10" brakes on my 98 for so long.
Thank you for the helpful video! It was very clear and concise, I definitely feel more confident going into replacing my drums in my 94. And don't let all these assholes in the comments get to you, most of them probably don't know diddly and couldn't even change a battery
Good video, if the adjustment lever spring pops off, it's not to bad getting it back on without removing the shoes. Also when disassembled check for wear groves in the backing plate, these get there shoes hung up in the grooves locking the brake on.
Bro!!!!! This is video is so good!!!! I really needed this information. Thank you for passing this on
Thank you!!!
uh huh .. okay .. now I'm gonna .. what if I told you .. uh huh okay hmmm…… alright
You are the man. Thankyou. Bless you
Best video on YouTube! Thanks for the help
Very good video, thank you for taking the time to making it and posting it thank you very much again it was very useful to me.
Again…this is the best and for most in-depth video. 2 Thumbs up!!!
There's a easier way to adjust the brakes by start up the engine put in reverse back up several time until the brakes drum stop spinning don't forget to put a couple lugs on each drum to retain them from going off. Self adjusting automatic. Lerron Moses
Great video, except… how the heck do you get the emergency brake cable reconnected because there’s no way that my spring will compress with a little screw driver and pull the cable back on? Suggestions? Other than this, this is a fantastic guide. Thank you.
A drill instructor would have turned pale as a ghost if they heard the language I used doing this.
Only problem with all the grease you put on there is it attracts dust. You don't want to attract dust at all in your brake drums. Less than a drop of silicone one either side of the wheel cylinder and some on either end of the forks adjusting it. The video was well done other than all the grease.
