Thank you for the video,it was a lot of help!
I know this is a while ago but this video really helped me get a better understanding of how drum brakes work and I replaced my own. After replacing mine I have a loud scraping noise coming from the back. I’ve adjusted multiple times I don’t know what’s rubbing what do you think it is?
wow, I watched 2 other videos by mechanics, and yours had 3+ tricks that they didn't show on it, thanks!
Where Can i buy the parking break lever piece, mine broke off
Hi friend add the torque ratchet in the links below is also a good one for the rim, thank you again 🙂
This is a great video! Just did mine yesterday and this video helped a lot! Thanks bro!!
thank you so much! you just saved me at least $300
Thank you so so so much, awesome video and great shots and explanation
Nice video. Very clear and straight to the point! Thanks for posting.
Excellent video. Clear and to the point with good camera work. Used for a 2010 Honda Civic. Thank you !
Very helpful and informative!
Amazingly clear instructions! Do you know if the m8x1.25 bolt is the same size for 2008 Honda civic? Can't find the specs anywhere
Clear, concise, well done, thank you,…. I'll spread the word
Man !!! You the best . Quick an tooo the point ,great camera angles . Every video has sooo much fluff , I don’t comment or subscribe much , but for you A+++
Fantastic video. Thank you.
So simple and very helpful
You make this job look easy! To anyone sizing up this task, I've done everything on cars over the past 25 years.. except drum brakes. That said, I discovered there is no amount of cussing in humanity to curse this dreadful experience. I would gleefully drop my steering rack, or replace the synchros in my transmission over doing this horrid task ever again. I hate letting anyone touch my cars for service but I think this is one job I would take to a brake shop to have done to hold on to my sanity.
Grat vídeo! You do it very carefully, this king about following your instructions for a Gen8 Civic
Thank you so much for this. About to do the drum brakes on my 07 Honda fit (same exact brakes). So many videos advocate for putting the brakes back together by attaching the shoes with the top spring and the adjuster rod first then trying to hold and hang the whole assembly over the top…all the while complaining you need three hands to do it well lol. This way makes it so much easier.
How to make it simpler and give you room to work. Remove the wheel cylinders first. Two bolt and a nut and you can now remove/replace the shoes as a unit.
Thank you for the video. I changed the pad after watching your video today. After the replacement, the brake pedal goes deep and it doesn't brake well. What's the problem? The piston fell out a few times and the brake liquid flowed. Is that the reason? Or is it wrong to assemble it?
Great video. Its similar with a 2013 LX too, right?
The amount of strength you need to put on the long spring and the amount of tries it takes is not shown here, talk about a PITA, also look at the shape of the hook when he removes it, its not like that on the stock spring or a new spring. its a u shape I had to bend it out a little bit similar to how he shows it here but not too much cause then it wont hold.
This work with 06 civic?
Well Done Sir!
Great video B.C.! Good, clear instruction, thorough steps, and great camera work. I wish you had cleaned that little smudge of anti-seize from the front of the dust shield to make sure none got onto the brake shoe, but other than that, one of the best drum shoe videos I've seen. Two thumbs up!
Great thanks! I will attempt this next weekend.
