CALIPERS
You are not required to replace or rebuild calipers in axle
sets. However, when replacing or rebuilding a caliper due to the
conditions that follow, you may suggest servicing, rebuilding, or
replacement of the other caliper (on the same axle) for improved
performance and preventive maintenance (for example, the part is close
to the end of its useful life, replacing the caliper may extend pad
life, or contribute to more balanced braking).
CAUTION: When installing loaded calipers, it is required that
friction material be matched in axle sets for consistent
braking characteristics.

DRUMS
Determine the need to recondition based upon individual drum
conditions that follow. Friction material replacement does not require
drum reconditioning unless other justifications exist. DO NOT
recondition new drums unless they are being pressed or bolted onto an
existing hub. It is not necessary to replace drums in axle sets.
However, when replacing or reconditioning a drum due to the conditions
that follow, you may suggest reconditioning of the other drum on the
Page 294 of 1378
same axle to eliminate uneven braking behavior. Always wash drums
after servicing or before installing.

indicator is to alert him or her to check for friction
wear. Wear indicators may be bent or broken. Therefore,
the friction material must be measured. The need for
friction material replacement is determined based upon
the conditions stated in this section. Periodic inspection
is suggested.
