Warning! Brake drums are replaceable on both sides of the vehicle.
Recommendation. We strongly recommend that you also replace the brake pads when you replace the brake drums.
Execution sequence
1. We prepare the car for work (see «Preparing the car for maintenance and repair»).
2. Remove the rear wheel (see «Wheel - replacement»).
3. Using the TORX T30 key, we unscrew the screw securing the brake drum.
4. Release the parking brake.
5. Tap the brake drum with a hammer through a wooden spacer.
6. Remove the brake drum from the hub.
7. We install the parts in the reverse order.
Recommendation. If the pads interfere with the installation of the drum, we wrap the threaded part of the bar of the automatic adjusting device so that the bar has a minimum length (see «Rear drum brakes - check»).
8. After installation, bring the brake pads to the drums with a few presses of the brake pedal.
