Since I started driving my '09 escape in 2017 I've been coming to your videos for reference with repairsand maintenance, thanks to you I've been able to keep her in tip-top shape so far. Your videos seriously are the best and most informative, easy to follow with clear precise instructions.
Awesome great works man, many thanks!
@hunter me too ✋️
This is, by far, one of the finest videos ever posted to You Tube. I have the 08 Escape. I have rotors and pads up front but drums and shoes on the back. I'm replacing everything and will take my lap top down into the garage with me and watch this video every step of the way. On behalf of the mechanically-challenged population, Thank you for taking the time to post this awesome vid! PS: Nice Ram 1500 in the driveway too!
Finally an all-encompassing guide to the rear drums on my escape. I've been fighting with excessive travel and spongy brakes for a real long time, and while I didn't put the brakes together 'wrong' they definitely weren't right. The order of the steps and the small details really matter and after step by stepping through your guide they were definitely installed right. Finally my brakes work proper.
Immense thanks bro, seriously.
You are a great teacher my friend. I have been an amateur mechanic for over 45 years and you showed me a lot of tips. God Bless You
Dude. Thank you so much. I've been wanting to do my rear brakes for the longest time, but I wanted to see it from start to finish.
FordTechMakuloco your videos have been a godsend for my 2005 Ford F-150 and now my 2011 Ford Escape. Thank you!!!
Your videos are so helpful bud!! Have to do my 09 escape limited in spring. This video is as clear as it can be. Thank you for taking the time to make us these videos that help us so much! I know, broken record, but really, thanks a lot!!!
Your videos are GREAT. Step by step detail like a flight manual. You've helped me out many times. Thank you.
im really thankful i have the same car as this guy. he has walked me through several projects
I Love you guys, with your help I'm fixing my cars just like that with a tones of fun and save a lot of money.Mega Thanks!!!!!
Thanks for taking the time to make a quality video. Took away the mystery of the drum brake job!
I have been fighting the shoe springs the wrong way all these years on the bottom retainer.THANKS FOR THE TIP! You ROCK!!!!
+Adrian “Kiba” L Yes he does !!
Agreed your a good educator, detailed, concise, easy to follow I have done these before and still learned a more professional perspective, and you turned me on to a more affordable price on some of the parts saving $30 per drum alone, while advocating for quality.
Thanks for a great video! It had the right balance of explanation to understand the process; suggestions, tips, tricks and techniques to make it easier; good visuals to understand what to do, and good understandable audio. The video helped me accomplish working on my brake drums with confidence. Good content. Thanks.
I worked in a motor pool when I was in the service. But most of the vehicles had shoes world war 2 vehicles. Am much older now and little skeptical about doing them myself. But I feel confident I can now that I have watched your video. Thank you so much.
I finally did this today, on our 10 year old Escape that we’ve owned since new. The shoes actually weren’t as bad as I expected. But I’ve got to say, don’t cheap out on shoes and drums, I bought a kit off a well known website. I should have just called my friend who is a parts manager, the spring kit that came with the “kit” sucked, the brake adjusters sucked, I spent more time making everything work, than if I would have just bought good parts. This video really helps, thanks again!
I just changed the master cylinder the front brakes and the back drum breaks. I love being able to do stuff myself. I just hate all the hardship that comes with it. Great video!
Thanks 💥🔧 I appreciate you guys sharing your skills, and experience with us !!! 🤗
One of the best drum brake videos I've seen. Most people miss the lubing of the backing plate. I would suggest to check the wheel cylinder a bit better.
@FordTechMakuloco your videos are great and have saved me thousands since we've owned a 2011 Escape. This was no exception but I had some trouble installing the bottom spring clip following your video.
Instead I reversed the order of the spring install starting with bottom spring (the small one) first. This way you can seat them in the slots on the bottom without having to pry at the shoes. I actually bent an aftermark pin prying on the shoes trying to fight the small spring into place.
Then position the shoes and set in place using the pins.
Then set the adjuster + spring in place (you will be able to seat it fully and adjust it out after installing the top spring).
Install the top spring per your video, being sure to seat the shoes in the brake cylinder slots and compress with your hands so the spring doesn't have to travel as far.
Install the adjuster spring.
Proceed as normal from here.
After some trial and error this was much easier for me without having to pry against the wheel hub, backing plate, or shoe.
Also, you should recommend people check their brake cylinders at this time. After I disassembled the one side it started to leak fluid. I checked the bleeder valve and bled the brakes a couple of times and it was fine after that.
Ha, I came here just to figure out how to get the top spring off and you made the rest look easy too. Thanks, I'll also need to buy drums before I try starting this job again. It's for the wife, so I make sure everything done on her car is solid.
I will go out right now and adjust my Focus mk2 brakes. Very good tutorial video. Thanks.
Awesome video, Thank u 4 the help, drum brakes are a pain in the......
Thank you so much. This really helped me out throughout the process. Many blessings to you
Thx, my dad and I rlly needed this vid
Good video ! A lot of good tips . As many sets of brake shoes I have done over the years I don't like doing them.
+N Smith Neither do I you just need to be smarter than these springs and keep a cool head about it.
Thanks so much for this clear and detailed video 👍🏼
great job in a very good video lots of detail helpful information
Excellent video! Very informative and well done! Thanks for posting!!
As always, thank you buddy. You’ve help me save thousands of dollars
You are an indispensable resource for me! Thanks so much, AGAIN!
archiguitarchi for me to
thank you for your professional service
Wow, those shoes look brand new after you washed them down, I`m doing everything on my 2005 Ford Escape this week. Everything looks so much simpler compared to the Taurus. I love the front strut installation on the Escape compared to the Taurus. And the front lower control arms are a cinch, no ball joints to buy and press in, you simply buy the complete lower control arm for only $59.99 a piece at Autozone. It sounded too good to be true but I checked them out and the quality is very good. Ford wants $170 a piece for them.
Wife's Escape is pulling to the right under medium/hard load, prety sure it's the rear brakes as the fonr have pretty even wear and I checked the caliper pins and movement and although the rear may just need adjustment I'm changing all four corners as I'm pretty sure they're all original. Thanks for the video Brian!
Thanks for this, it was a huge help working on my wifes care, especially getting that e-brake cable back on. I was about to sell the car since I couldnt get that back on! Question though, after I replaced the shoes and drums on both rear tires I hear a knocking sound coming from the rear right tire when I brake, it gets faster as I brake from a higher speed too.
Excellent video, thanks for the valuable information. Blessings!!
Well done video. Very professional and helpful.
at 18:00 i have a tool made for compressing that cable spring that i use...also should you change out those wheel cylinders with that many miles??? and should you pull back wheel cylinder rubber boots to see if they are leaking pass the inter cups ???
Do you have a video on the 2003 F250 super duty rear backing plate repair?
And I have that measurement tool, that thing is awesome. I found on the Taurus, with all new parts, I didn`t even have to adjust the brakes, they were perfect.
WILL THEY WORK GOOD ON HONDA LET ME KNOW THANK
Do you happen to have a video on replacing the rear hubs for a 2010 Escape? This is a bit different than I'm used to doing and would like to see one first. Thanks.
Great video. I did exactly what you did and my esp lights came up in the dashboard. What I did wrong??
Hey great video. Question for you. Would Permatex Dielectric Tune Up Grease be good to grease up caliper pins and such or should I buy Permatex silicone ceramic brake lubricant?
great video! I had no idea that measuring tool existed. genius.
How different is this process on one of the Ford Escape Hybrids? I have backing plates that are so rusted out that they won't hold the emergency brake cables at all. I assume I'll have to take off all this hardware plus whatever is on the hybrid model plus remove the axel to put a new one on there.
Now that you have done drum brakes on the escape any hope for rear disc brakes on one...Having a heck of a time getting caliper off
What a great video! So informative!
I HAVE 2011 ford escape limited. abs signs is on in this winter and i checked all the tone rings are ok but are look like a little away from the wall of cv axle. light is still on and flashes sometimes and vehicle hesitates. what do u think can be the actual cause??
Thanks
another trick I use for the lower spring is after you have pinned the rear most shoe, hook the lower spring into both slots then rotate the front shoe into place with the bottom already in its slot...then hook up the pin and spring retainer...it works great that way...cool video bro
+Gary Ferguson Jr I have used a variation of that before also just about anything you can do to overcome the springs.
Do you know if its the same way to do this on a 2010 transit connect?
Well done video. Very professional.
Very informative detailed but kept it simply. It will definitely help me. I'll have to watch again duh.
how different from 2009 would changing rear brake drums for a 2007 ford escape xls 2.3L be?
Nice informative video. But don’t these vehicles have self adjusting rear brakes? Will they not self adjust when reassembled? Or is adjusting mandatory?
Do you have a recommendation on a low cost torque wrench? Or solution for torquing?
Which primer and paint do you recommend for painting the drums?
Hi I'am Rodrigo Albornoz, thanks so much very good explanation, your video helped me a lot. But I have another problem in my vehicle ford scape 2008 with ABS, when I'am driving I listing a noise in the wheel, I don't know if you can helped me thanks you.
I have a 2010 Mercury mariner. When braking I hear a tapping or low knocking sound from rear brake drum. Any ideas?
Thank You for this movie, was helpful for me .
This guide is great! Loving all your escape videos. Is there a good spot to look to find the jack point to jack up both of the rear wheels? Thanks.
U have to use the frame. I've never had an issue
man, i love your videos..you make things so easy. I wish you did chryslers also..i have a 2008 Town and Country that needs the ebrake reinstalled. the one video that i saw on it..sucked..
Thank you bro nice video it just help me a lot keep it up
Is there any way to adjust the parking brake for 2008-2012 escape?
For as much wear was on those shoes the rest of the break parts look damn nice and clean. Barely any rust at all.
+Shannon Helton Yeah for some reason the Escapes stay nice and clean even in the salt belt of the USA.
CAN YOU USE THE BRAKE RESETTING TOOL ON HONDA ACCORD AND HONDA CIVIC LET ME KNOW THANK
My Escape is ten years old now, and it just need rear brakes. My wife just drives short distances to and from works, but I’m still amazing how long they’ve lasted. We bought this Escape brand new, I’ve got my money out of it.
Great detailed video👌
Dude, all your videos are awesome.. Thx!
Very well planned video, most informative I have seen. Thank you for doing this., greybeard
So the ford escape 2011 doesn not have a self adjust feature on the rear breaks? Do they need to be adjusted every certain amount of km or simple replaced after a while?
Hey I know this might be weird but anyway you could do a drum to disc conversion for the rear breaks on the 2011 escape? 🙏🏾
Nice clean job!
You mention putting dialectric grease/brake caliper grease on the contact points on the backing plate. I have a tube of dialectric grease and a jar of brake caliper grease. Which one should I use?
Some escapes have all four disk is it possible to retrofit disks in
Please help. Have a 2013 Ford Escape 3.0 FWD. My rear brakes look odd. The gold colored arm, doesn't move to a horizontal position. Please advise.
I can’t find the Motorcraft in stock anywhere, do you have a recommendation for the next best?
do i need to do anything with the HEV battery if i drive a hybrid so i dont die via electrocution?
you have a video to change the valve pcv ford scape 2011
Good vid. I've been having lots of good luck with the AC Delco rotors on various Fords. Very little, if any, measureable runout. Glad to know I can trust the drums too.
+Chad Bob Yeah they were definitely top notch and are my go to aftermarket brand for brake rotors and drums.
So glad we found this video! My husband definitely appreciates how well you explained everything in detail! Just wish we found it earlier. Could've saved a few hours of aggravation. 😂
Top tier video!!! Thank u sir
Hi FTM, I will be putting rear brake shoes on my sister's 2010 escape. Motorcraft brake shoes from Amazon BRF- 936 but then they sent me Br-936-B. They are made in China. What is the difference from BRF-936 and BR-936-B. thanks
The brake spring holder tool is made so that both ends of it pinch the straight section of the spring so that it can be stretched so that the hooked end of the spring is easily set into place, as opposed to using only the hooked end of that tool to grab the hooked end of the spring to try to drag it into its place.
Wow your amazing. What about rear axle seal please
Thank you for the video
I didn’t know Ryan Reynolds was a mechanic on the side, but seriously, this was an awesome video and I shouldn’t have much trouble with it now.
I was wondering if you know of any way to reset the automatic transmission on a 2011 Ford Fiesta it's shuddering really bad now in 2nd and 3rd gear take off. the dealer reflash the system about three months ago ND put in the latest software but it's still terrible on takeoffs especially when the transmission is warm the clutches were replaced at 60000 Miles it had 125,000 on it now,I've been having a lot of problems with it I have also tried the scrubbing of the clutch as seen in your video that has helped in the past but this time it does not help it is there anything you can tell me.thank you I love you videos
+john carnall At this point with the 2-3 shift shudder it needs a new clutch.
this was a great video
Using that tool how close should it be aginst the shoe for it to be right
Hey man I replaced my drum brakes watching your video (Thanks a lot for it,very useful) but after driving a few days there is a clicking noise coming from the right side when braking ,mostly when I am almost stopped.Any thoughts? Thanks!
Might be the adjustment lever never works as keeping it stationary is impossible
Hello FTM happy new year, does this also apply to an 03 escape? thanks
It is quite similar yes.
thank you so much for you help man.
Can you change the wheel cylinders on an 08 escape?
My Ford Escape 2012 is only 42k miles. It's starting to squeal when coming to a stop. What front break pads might you recommend? I want something with good stopping power. Also, can I skimp and get the rotors turned, or should I just replace them? And finally, when do I need to replace the rear breaks (drums)? As you can tell, I'm completely clueless as this is my first car. Thanks in advance to anyone who might give me a hand here.
CAN YOU USE THIS GAGE ON ASINE CARS AND TRUCK LET ME KNOW THANK
is there a ford escape drum to rotor conversion kit FordTechMakuloco?
He never answers any questions. I am wondering the same thing because some 09-12 Ford escapes comes with rear discs or rear drums.
Cool video, thank you.
Has anyone converted a 2012 Escape from rear drums to disc?
I smile at the way guys on you tube "flood" everything with brake cleaner. You are obviously not paying $8 ++ like we do in Canada for a spray can.
$2.85 retail or $1.85 on sale for tall cans!
Hey FordTechMakuloco, I have a tapping sound coming from my rear brakes on my 04 Escape. What could be causing it?
The metal contact points where the shoes rub on metal point on the truck need to be relubricated.
