FYI rear drum haters. The rear brakes supply only about 20% of the total braking. Drum brakes have several advantages over disc brakes, including: Braking force: Drum brakes can provide more braking force than disc brakes of the same diameter. This is due to the increased friction contact area of the drum brake shoes. Durability: Drum brakes are more durable and last longer than disc brakes. They wear more slowly and are hardier. Cost: Drum brakes are cheaper to manufacture than disc brakes. Heat generation: Drum brakes generate less heat than disc brakes. Self-energizing: Drum brakes have a built-in self-energizing action, so less input force is required. Maintenance: Drum brakes require less frequent maintenance than disc brakes because they are more resistant to corrosion. Reconditioning: Drum brake wheel cylinders are easier to recondition than disc brake calipers. Weight: Drum brakes are lighter than disc brakes, the drum is lighter than rotors, their hydraulic cylinders are smaller and lighter than calipers and need no heavy mounting brackets. I tracked a highly modified Honda Insight and had to upgrade to bigger front disk brakes but the OEM drums on the rear were fine. The bigger fronts required a rotor replacement and several pad changes in 3 years. The rears never required any maintenance. Just adjusted the rears drum brakes on my wife's 2015 Fit with 105k miles. The shoes were about 50% worn. EDIT: Forgot to mention: The Fit adjustment took about 30 mins through the rubber covered access port.
@@mailmanjoe”link in my bio” I would say that’s a sell out too. Ever tool he uses he sells. Sells the shit out of some 3D tools that they gave him for free. Think they do this for fun. 😂😊
este video me aayudo mucho pero solo pude cambia r un lado me hacian falta las herrramientas especiales jajaja pero yaa las encontre entonces cuando lleguen vere que mejor me va mucchas gracias x el video deberias de hacer uno con tecnicas cuando el tambor esta pegado y no sale que tornillos usar o com,o quitar un tambor pegado eso me quito mucho tiempo tengo un honda fit ex l 2018 gracias x el videooo por eso me anime a hacerlo. esta muy bien explicado gracias
One of my roommates son drives a fit and since he's a new driver, drove off one day with the parking brake half on and went on the highway well soon after he said what's that smell lol 😆 looked behind him to a whole bunch of smoke, he warped the drums and now needs new shoes and drums LMAO 😂
Ive never really had issues with after market springs as long as they are the correct ones and not damaged. Re using the. Is okay if they aren't damaged but you might as well replace the. While your in there.
Im currently in college to get my automotive applied sciences degree and I was wondering if you could post a video on how to use the on car brake lathe because I only know how to use the older brake lathes
Piece of fit. Pivot, pivot! Keep doing you TE! Wicked humour. I hate drum brakes. Got a good ol Clio MK4 1.5 dci. Came with rear drums. No idea why. Awful brakes to adjust.
Renault in 1902 first made them for cars. Drum brakes have been around since they started autos and trains. They are still used in large trucks (air brakes) and freight trains. They are easy to maintain with a couple of special tools.
don't do that bud the right tools make it stupid easy and you'll just fuck up the springs. $20 at hobo freight and and abt $35 on the Lyle tools n ur set. make your life easier bud
those brake drums , and brake pads were still good , just some cleaning and sanding ....he just throwed them away ..... don' missunderstand me . the brakes will be good after this job but this is a big waste .... a wery bigone
I usually take the hub off. Pop the retaining clips and e brake cable off. Build the shoes with the springs and adjuster on my bench and slide them back in over the cylinder. Easy peazy

I feel attacked 😂
almost spilled out my coffee! lmao
Thanks for this video. It’s easy to tell that you know what you’re doing. And you’ve helped me and many others hopefully know what we’re doing too!
Loving the videos man. Recently found your videos and have been binge watching everything!

Love the videos Tyler. Look forward to them! Makes my day!
Used your video to do the brakes on my 09 Accord! Ty bud! These drummies look way harder to work on.
Love the videos man! Keep it up. Hit a million. You’ll beat Eric the car guy
That guy is a sellout

You are gonna blow up bud! On the path like Chrisfix.
So what happened to Chrisfix?
Poverty covers! Love it!

Very helpful 🎉🎉
How many miles on that fit? My 07 fit has 250k on it and they’ve never been replaced.
Going to replace my rear drums, do you recommend using the old hardware and springs or using what comes with the drum and shoe kit ?

Did it without the clip and spring tool, just get them. It was NOT a fun time lol
Fr fr, 2 person job 😂
Idk what that spring tool is BUT I NEED IT
Can you please list the full name of the Molykote? I keep finding several ones. Thank you
Hi mate, are you using a head setup or on chest for GoPro?

I am the minority who likes rear drum brakes on small simple cars. They're cheap, and they do the job.
1) love the Linkin Park in the background😌🤌🏽
2) which psychopath made drum brakes??

Tried replacing drum brake shoes when my wife had a Fit, popped the drum off, I said F it 😂
Linkin Bio. Is that because their song was playing in the video? 😆
Shoe to drum clearance was adjusted too tight
I just use a good pair of needle nose pliers on drum brakes.

in my humble opinion he could have just refurbished those parts without replacing them that would have been the right choice
I hate the person that invented this mechanism smfh . Why not just do disk breaks period
You're moving too fast. Move slower so I can see what the hell you're doing. Pat
I absolutely despise of drum brakes. They are a pain in the a** compared to disc brakes.
They are easier if you get two special tools for maintaining them. I was lucky enough to get the tools from a friend who retired.
Obviously a chicks car. Looks better with the ugly hub caps off.
