Rear Drum Brakes
Your rear drum brakes don’t have wear
indicators, but
if you ever hear a rear
brake rubbing noise, have the rear brake
linings inspected. Also, the rear brake
drums should be removed and inspected
each time
the tires are removed for
rotation or changing. When you have the
front brakes replaced, have
the rear
brakes inspected, too.
Brake linings should always be replaced
as complete axle sets.

not return to normal height, or if there
is a rapid increase in pedal travel. This
could be a sign
