Steps for Replacing a Brake Wheel Hub Drum Brake Self Adjuster Repair Kit
Step 1: Safety First Before you begin, it is important to take safety precautions. Park your vehicle on a level surface and engage the parking brake. Allow the vehicle to cool down if it has been driven recently, as you will be working with hot components.
Step 2: Locate the Brake Wheel Hub Drum Brake Self Adjuster The brake wheel hub drum brake self adjuster is typically located on the back side of the rear shoe opposite the parking brake lever.
Step 3: Remove the Brake Drum Consult your vehicle's repair manual for specific instructions on how to remove the brake drum. In general, you will need to remove the lug nuts, pull the drum straight toward you, and use a hammer or pry bar to gently tap it loose.
Step 4: Inspect the Brake Components Once the brake drum is removed, inspect the brake shoes, pads, and other components for wear or damage. If any components need to be replaced, do so now.
Step 5: Adjust the Parking Brake Locate the parking brake lever and adjust it so that there is a slight drag when the parking brake is applied. This will ensure that the parking brake is properly engaged.
Step 6: Install the New Brake Wheel Hub Drum Brake Self Adjuster Position the new brake wheel hub drum brake self adjuster in place and secure it with the bolts or screws. Tighten the bolts or screws until the adjuster is snug.
Step 7: Reinstall the Brake Drum Place the brake drum back onto the wheel hub and secure it with the lug nuts. Tighten the lug nuts until they are snug.
Step 8: Test the Brakes Once the brake drum is reinstalled, test the brakes by depressing the brake pedal. The brakes should feel firm and responsive.
