In this video, I just show a simple rear brake inspection. This truck happens to be a 1998 Chevrolet Silverado, but it will apply to most any General Motors …

I hate to be annoying… but brake shoes, not pads and use a hammer on the drum because you can mess up the backing plate
Hit it with a hammer aaaaaahhhhhh!
How did you loose the drum to come off. My dad is having trouble on that..big time. Can you show me step by step? Make a video please
Thank you!
the fact that it wasn’t easy to get off was REALLY helpful! and the narration rocked too! thanks for an EXCELLENT step-by-step video! now i am ready to go tear that sucker apart and see the massive ridges i probably have lol! thanks MUCH for the vid!
my dad has the same bottle of anti-seize also there should be a spot to put a bolt in to pop that drum off , there usualy all the same thread
Not sure…have had the truck for 6 months now, seems ok but we’ll see how the snow goes. No way we’re gonna wear them out on mileage, we don’t drive the truck enough.
i have the same tires how long have they held up for you?
Thanks for the reply. What are the options if you can’t get a drum off?
i took the drum off my poor buick. the inside has alot of, rust dust (i think its rust dust since its all brown). should that be cleaned off?
nice color
These trucks w/ 10 inch drums don’t have a spot in the backing plate
Nice job, Ben. If you can’t get the drum off, do you loosen the star wheel from the medial side so there is more room?
always love your vids man very hepfull!!
Nice video – one other tip to get them off is to keep rotating it as you pull it off.
Nice vid
