Easiest and most clear video of brake work I've seen online. Good camera work and directions.
He makes it look so easy. I had great difficulty with the springs.
Same
I plan to make my own spring pull T-hook tool
to release and later re-engage the springs.
pliers are nice, however, it would be easier to hold a cross piece and pull with
greater force with such a hook than you could with pliers. both tools would work, but the
hook would be more convenient.
Tell me about it. I highly dislike this design.
Same I remember doing this on my 02 Civic and damn I was stumped after changing those drum brakes
@@Djevan41598 Harbor Freight sells a Drum Brake Spring Pliers Kit that makes this dumb easy to do. I don't know why more mechanics on YT don't show them.
A small tip: You can pry open the clip that holds the emergency brake cable to make it easier to remove. On reinstallation, you can tap it a little to tighten it up. That what I did when I worked on my Camry Solara a couple of years ago.
Well done. A quick shot of penetrating oil makes that plug much easier to work with and I like to hit the adjusting screw threads with graphite as it won't attract or hold dust while allowing the auto adjusters to do their thing. Also, if the drum doesn't want to come off there are threaded holes on the face that you can thread bolts into then using hand tools turn them in to push the drum off.
Thanks for the suggestions and for watching! +Richard Anderson
The process looks very challenging. I pulled it off! Great video and clear instructions. A+ Excellent
You forgot to grease the contact points!
followed your instructions step by step and everything went mostly smooth. Except for re-connecting the E-Brake cable, THAT SUCKED!!! So I just didn't disconnect it on the 2nd wheel. Thank you for the help
The best, the most detailed, and such excellent instructions given by the presenter thank you 1A auto I always buy from you guys.
This video is excellent quality. The brakes they show look just like the rear brakes on our 2001 Rav4. I'm replacing them today and this is very helpful. Thanks.
You guys are absolutely awesome, you save a lot of people money a lot of money ... THANK YOU 👍
Thanks for this video, I was having some difficulty today getting the first side back together (and the exploded diagram in the Haynes manual wasn't very helpful). Turns out, whomever had worked on that side last put the return spring on in the wrong direction! (I don't know how they got it together that way, but they did!) Once I corrected that, the job wasn't too tough. Your close-up at 3:47 solved my problem...

Without this video I would have been lost and never attempted to do it myself.
You’re the best . I get everything from you because of your videos
I have a 2002 toyota camry and its the same exact parts. Thanks for the video!!!
Just ordered this kit online this video is way better to understand and see exactly where everything goes. well made video.
+flywithme Bailey Thanks for watching our video and we hope your install goes well!
@@1AAuto mine didnt come with the hardware and i ordered from 1a auto
This was a great video, used it as a teaching aid to teach my son how to do drum brakes. It was close enough to our Corolla to get the idea. The e-brake cable was a bitch, but the vise grip needle nose pliers did the trick.
+Robert Booth Thank you for the feedback!
This is a great video you have made my life easier this was the 1st time I have ever change them. Thanks a lot for your help

Just did this today. The needle nose vise grips are essential to reinstall the springs. Thanks for another great video 1A Auto.
+timber_beast Thanks for watching. If any of our viewers needs to make this repair, we carry the auto repair part shown in this video on our website. Here is a link to them www.1aauto.com/toyota-camry-solara-brake-drum-and-shoe-kit-rear/i/1abds00262?TH-cam&CTA+Comment&YB58vU
The best I have seen on this.
More tips. Get a tube of synthetic brake grease. Lubricate the adjuster very lightly. Lubricate the points where the shoes rub on the backing plate. You can lubricate any point where anything rubs on anything else. Synthetic brake grease can replace anti-seize grease in almost every application except spark plugs. I use it on wheel nuts for example.
I bought small tube of synthetic brake grease for less than five dollars about three years ago and I still have half left after front and rear brake jobs on three different cars.
I just did my second Camry a few days ago. The Camry self-adjusters work. If they don't work, you did something incorrectly.
Great video, simple and easy to follow
This is a clear, step by step that will help. Lots of little springs and parts to get off and back on. Allow plenty of time. Disc brakes have spoiled us.

Buy a brake tool kit. Makes it a lot easier, especially the springs.
That is some meaty tred on that tire man. I want me some of those things on my Camry
Thanks for checking us out. 1aauto.com +Kota E
Good video for using the minimum of tools required I forgot what it was like to be using the non brake tool kit ..... Great info ..
+mike ashford Thank you for the great reply. We love to empower our customers by showing you how-to perform your own auto repairs while installing our high quality auto parts. Have a great day! 1aauto.com
My FSM says to pull the hand brake up several times to adjust the brake mechanism. Also, I would suggest pulling the handbrake while the drum is off to make sure the adjuster is working properly. One side of my adjuster wasn't seated in the shoe fully and it wouldn't ratchet and adjust. I wish I would have seen this first. I will say also, I did this on my daughters 1987 Camry. It's exactly the same except there was a design change between her year and the year of this car. Her car had a step on the pin for the handbrake mechanism and only one horseshoe clip. The newer style like yours has no step and two horseshoe clips. Took us a bit to figure out how to convert.
this is a great instructional video ! thank you ! you saved me a whole lot of money
This video was huge help! THANK YOU 1A AUTO !
Great instructions video. Just wondering why did he reinstall the wheel on the old drum lol😅
Great video. It will help me out. I do have a question. at the end when reinstall tire it went on to a old brake drum that was just replaced with a brand new drum ??
Lol just noticed that too, I think they just had it pre recorded
I’m stuck on the remove the drum part
This is a professional video!
+Dennis Chuang Thank you! We are happy it helped!
Also, getting e-brake cable back in place is an unnecessary pain. I would leave it connected just disconnect the actuator from the show.
Nice professional video. Instead of needle nose pliers to remove springs, pull with a piece of strong spring or make a steel wire hook.
+Piet Maritz Thank you for the suggestions and for watching!
Like a trampoline spring?
Would it be best to reduce the brake adjuster just slightly so there is no rubbing against the drum or is the slight rubbing ideal? Just seems like unnecessary friction
Thanks a lot, you helped me with my brakes installment, so at least i can subscribe to channel. Keep going...! And again thanks alot...!
+Daniel Lopez You're welcome, glad we could help. 1aauto.com
Awesome video man!
Can you please show how to convert from drum to disk brakes on a 99 Camry?
Thanks!
+Bruno Delaw We're always cycling through cars filming hundreds of common repairs for common vehicles every month. We'll add this to our list of repairs to film. Check back again and hopefully we'll have it soon.
Thank you just saved a lot of money. Great video
+Danielle Maese You're welcome. Have a great day!
After doing this job on my Camry the ebrake handle in the car wasn’t quite as firm to engage for some reason. Any ideas why or how to adjust? Thanks
Excellent instruction video. Thank you guys!
This was really helpful thanks guys . So I’m having trouble putting back the drum it fell like the brake shoe are big for it so idk if I have made a mistake or the place where I got my shoe didn’t give me the right size so please if someone knows anything about it let me know please
Hey Alex, the same thing happened to me last summer. No matter what I did one side wouldn't fit on. I must have tried 50 times and finally the next day again after many attempts it slide on. I don't know what I did to get it on but was afraid to remove it to do any adjustment. I'm curious if you figured out what happened.
This is the exact same for 87-91 Camrys. Just sharing the info for anyone looking to do a brake job on their 1st gen camry.
Did you have an issue with the pin for the handbrake lever being different? I did on my daughters 1987 Camry. They were factory original, 30+ years old.
FYI this is exactly the same style as the RAV4 that have rear drums.
Will this work for a 1997 Toyota Corolla?
Guys remember to grease the correct spots cuz mine started making noise after a while until I greased it
Good vid. Those springs are really rugged. Need some muscle to pull on them.
+Anthony Torrey Thanks for checking us out!
Awesome info thanks 1A Auto
The correct parts and excellent videos how to do it.
It’s pretty easy and there’s a lot of other videos but you guys forgot to do the wheel cylinders that come in the kit
Professional and perfect...…….

very very nice video. well speaking instructions. you guys are my type of teachers!!! also, thank you to mr. anonymous9 months ago (edited) cuz I knew there was a way to adjust the drum brakes without removing the wheel but it has been MANY years since auto shop class.
+mike hews Thank you for the great reply. We love to empower our customers by showing you how-to perform your own auto repairs while installing our high quality auto parts. Have a great day! 1aauto.com
Please help. I recently did this job on the 26 and it all works well but I noticed my e-brake isn’t working. When I pull the lever from inside I hear it click but it doesn’t tighten up it feels really light to pull it up but I did reattach the e-brake cable. Why isn’t my e-brake working ?
Clicking in the e-brake lever or in the drum? If going in reverse and braking hard doesn't do it, you would have to manually tighten the self-adjuster.
Tighten the adjuster as far as it will go until the pads make contact and back the adjuster wheel off until the wheel moves but not free spinning year late but hope it helps someone
were there certain components not included in the new kit? it looks like u saved some of the old stuff to reinstall (the little clip or something?)
there's no risk of damaging hte e-break cable by applying pressure from the plyers with it?
Didn't Yosemite Sam say, "I hates drum brakes."
thank you for the video
Had to turn the camera off for a bit to get thru the cussing when trying to remove that brake adjustment spring. Lol Iv been there.
Nice video! So far you have save me lots of $$$ Keep them videos coming and stay safe...
+Soy Eldiego Thank you for the positive feedback. We really appreciate it! If you have a minute, drop us a review on our Facebook page to let other people know about your experience with us. Here's a link: facebook.com/1AAuto/reviews/
You forgot to lubricate the high spots on the backing plate that the shoes slide on
Why are there no videos on replacing the rear disc brakes? And why are there drum brakes inside the rotor on the rear disc. Show us how to replace those
is there a way to replace the backing plate? I was trying to do some rear brake work and noticed I had a lot of rust going on.. the backing plate is literally crusting away. everything looks original and in bad shape. Any suggestions
+Andrew Hartman We do not have a video for this repair right now, but we'll keep this request in mind for a future video! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
How many year to change
These are super helpful videos. My thanks for posting them. However.... It would be even more helpful if after you show the entire procedure, you also showed tips and tricks to getting the frozen, stubborn and complex parts loose, reassembled, aligned and mated properly, if ya know what I mean?
For instance, in this brake video on an OLD Camry, what are the chances the drum will just pop off... Maybe, maybe not. But if you had shown in the "Tips" that the drum has a threaded hole specifically for screwing in a bolt which then pushes against the hub to literally push the frozen drum right off the hub, DIYers would be that much more intelligent and your videos would be even more useful. Just sayin'.
I purchased a set of TRQ shoes and drums for my 01 Corolla S and I'm dealing with scraping and squeal noise on R/R side only. I've adjusted the star wheel that didn't work. I swapped the R/R drum to the L/R side and still hear noise on the R/R side. I've also swapped the shoes on the R/R side to the L/R side and re adjusted, and still brake noise on the R/R! Any suggestions why is it only that side? Do I need better brake shoes?
Sometimes brand new brakes need a little while to be broken in, how long have you had them installed and how far have you driven?
Is the emergency brake cable spring is the same if the car had rear disk brake sytem
I assume you have a 99 Camry? I ran into this yesterday. According to the automotive store mechanics, they are a separate system. They are similar but way tougher to install.
what type of tires are those?
So mine are rusty and won't come off. What should I do?
+Joseph White You may want to hit them with some PB blaster to break them free, just use brake cleaner afterwards to clean up the PB blaster. Hope this helps you out. 1aauto.com
Look up on iTunes how to remove a stuck drum. Lots of good videos to explain.
Thank you!
Good video. Thanks.
+al ensley Thank you!
Will this same process apply for the 96 Toyota Camry?

Touch of grease on backing plate wear shoes ride. Wears your safety glasses 🤓
Super video
So there are no brake pads in the rear of a Camry? I have a 97 and just trying to figure out what parts to buy
+Fifi Fornow Thank you for watching. This set up is a drum and shoe combination. There was this type of a set up, or a rotor and pad set up based upon the manufacturer and available supplies at the assembly plant. 1aauto.com
good job a lot of help thanks.
Is this also good for 96 Camry?
would this be applicable to Toyota Solaras?
+daindapain1 We don't have a how-to video for your vehicle right now, but the basic steps in this video should be enough to do this task. Thanks for checking us out! 1AAuto.com
Didn't mention release the handbrake first. If not release the handbrake, no way to take down the drum.
He just threw that wheel cover scratching it up. What a jerk! And it’s not a hub cap. Hub means center.
Ye
What brand of brakes shoes did u use
+young Boyce We carry the brake shoes shown in this video on our website. Here is a link to them. goo.gl/f4BMLq
Is this the same as a ceilica?
+Josh L We don't have a how-to video for your vehicle right now, but the basic steps in this video should be enough to do this task.
Would not hurt to wear safety glasses........dealing with springs
So I guess the back wheels don’t need break pads ? Because I bought some and went to a mechanic and had put on it but I left and I didn’t see him work on it. He got me ?
This video shows a vehicle with a rear brake set up of having drums and shoes. In this style set up, there are shoes instead of pads. Rear brakes that have a rotor would use pads. Hope this helps! +Ketchup Rod
Changing the front ....cake....the rear?....🤯
Rear
Makes ya think twice about buying a car with pads vs. Shoes. Is it really necessary to buy the whole kit vs. Just the shoes?
+Poopy Pants diggity If the drums are fine you can just replace the shoes. Hope this helps you out. 1aauto.com
Liked 💯
you are supposed use spring pliers designed just for removing the springs from the drum assembly so springs don’t go flying.
use a brake spring pliers to make life easier...you’re welcome.
One missing you don’t saw the how to take the drum out because the drum rusty you can’t just pull it so easy they stuck you have to put some but in there so the drum is pull out that that missing other and that is good.
+erickson silalahi Vlog Thanks for the feedback!
How are y'all still in business with those outrageous prices. Anybody with a brain would never pay those kinds of prices.
Why didn't you just put the wheel on the side you replaced everything ?
Ahhh i hate drums
Some DIY projects are better left to the professionals, I would let my mechanic do this...much too complicated, too many parts.
Thanks for checking us out. 1aauto.com +Tariq Khan
I know for myself, I just dont have the money to pay someone but I can understand what you're saying.
Takes time. I used to do these a lot. If I got lost, I would look at the other wheel to see how the parts connected.
Changed the wheel hub and didn’t show it. Neither was there a link to another video lame
