What is the Parking Brake Drum all about?

Your primary braking system is an essential component of your vehicle. However, there’s a second braking system that’s just as important, although not as obvious. Your parking brake is responsible for keeping your car safely in one spot when you’re parked on a grade, and for ensuring that the weight of the car doesn’t rest on the transmission.

The parking brake is activated by either pulling a lever or pushing an auxiliary brake pedal, which pulls a cable that runs beneath the car from the cabin to the rear wheels. This cable then pulls on the actuator within the parking brake drum, forcing the shoes apart and holding your vehicle in place.

In a disc-brake setup, the drum is built into the back of the rear brake discs. In a drum-brake system, the parking brake uses the existing drums and shoes in the rear. Over time and through normal use, the parking brake components wear. The shoes will wear out well before the drum, but the drum can suffer damage before that happens.

Keep in mind:

  • Parking brake drum condition can be assessed during brake system inspections.
  • Drum resurfacing is a normal part of vehicle maintenance and should be done regularly.
  • Shoe replacement is not required as frequently as pad replacement because it undergoes inspection during regular maintenance.
  • Driving with your parking brake engaged will quickly reduce the lifespan of both the shoes and the parking brake drum.

How it's done:

  • The vehicle is lifted and supported on jack stands and the rear wheels are removed
  • The defective parking brake drums are removed
  • The new parking brake drums are installed
  • The wheels are reinstalled and the vehicle is removed from jack stands
  • The vehicle is tested and checked for parking brake operation

Our recommendation:

While the parking brake actuation system is separate from your primary braking system, they’re both tied together. Brake wear (both shoe and parking brake drum) is normal and must be rectified with regular maintenance, including resurfacing and shoe replacement. Have your vehicle maintained by our expert mechanics, who are capable of inspecting your brakes and providing advice on maintenance intervals for your parking brake drum.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Parking Brake Drum?

  • Weak braking action
  • Damaged drum
  • Parking brake doesn’t hold fast when engaged

How important is this service?

While parking brake drums will last for a very long time, they can be damaged in accidents and by driving with the parking brake engaged. If you suspect that your parking brake drum needs to be resurfaced, the shoes need to be replaced, or that there is damage to the drum, have the drum inspected and repaired immediately.

Toyota Camry V6-3.0L - Brake Hose Replacement (Driver Side Front) - Chicago, Illinois
Genaro was absolutely great. He actually called to see if he could come earlier than scheduled, and I said fine by me. First day was the $70 diagnostic. He didn't have the brake hose, so he had to come back the next day. Cost me around $140 to replace it. Showed me a bunch of stuff that needed to be taken care of and didn't need to be taken care of. He confirmed everything that other shops said, including pricing. The best part is not that he's honest, but you can actually sit and watch every little thing that he does. What happens when you go to a shop and leave it for the day or sit in the waiting room??? Did they actually do the transmission flush? Radiator flush? Spark plug change??? Now to be honest, I don't think you really save very much with this service, which you should because this service doesn't have the rent overhead of a standalone shop. I guess the convenience makes up for it. What I DID get was a mechanic who CAME TO ME, fast, and was knowledgable, polite, and trustworthy. Am considering hiring him again before his scheduled move to another state. Very well done, Genaro. You da man!!!! I'm a little bit hesitant to give him a "10" because he's only done one job for me, but I'm gonna give it to him anyway because he was so nice.
