Dad taught me how these are done over 50 years ago. He taught me to only do one side at a time and use the other as a reference if needed.
Today with cell phone cameras, it's not as necessary, but sometimes seeing the physical brake parts installed is better than a photo.
Very well explained. 👍
back in the day of the hayes or if youre lucky the chilton manual
@@666dynomax I got a couple of those old manuals plus a David desired and other good old how-to books. I'm 65 and I have one of my dad's old books, how to fix your Chevrolet or something like that. Love those old books.
My dad told me to layout the parts as if they were on the car and then place the old parts in the same manner on the ground.
That's great advice. Thank you
Thank you for making this video.
Dude, you saved me so thousands of repair costs over the years with all the stuff I'm doing myself on my car! Thanks a ton!
Chrisfix you did the same thing to me you saved me $1000 because the dealer asked me $2000 the $1000 was the price of all the drum break meteriol.
This kid was born to help. Makes everything look easy. I'm buying stuff to fix rust from a different video 🤣
Really why save millions
And you learn too not only saving money thats the good point.
I fix everyone’s cars with KRplus . I hate spending money (;
Dude because of you Ive become fearless and protective of my car. Theres very little i wont tackle myself now. Ive finally invested in alot if tools because of the confidence ive gotten with you over the years. Youre the best man.
That's awesome Joseph!
I know it's been said dozens of times here, but this is the best instructional video I've ever seen, even outside of KRplus.
You have a gift, Chris. There may be better mechanics in this world, and there might be better teachers, but I'd bet a paycheck there isn't a better mechanic instructor.
Thank you, Chris. Well done.
Man I’ve been too nervous to change drum brakes for YEARS, but I feel much more confident now that I’ve seen this video. You’re an excellent teacher, and I greatly appreciate how thorough you were with this lesson!
Same
He put way too much anti seize. When it gets hot it will run. Keep it super thin everywhere , except on threads. Then go thorough, but thin.
Don't use the screwdriver and pliers method, you might end up like my scarred eyebrow; I hit myself with pliers while trying to pull the spring on. I nearly went blind in one eye, but I only hit myself in the eyebrow. It's best to use the right tool. That said, I goofed like this because to get close enough to attempt putting the spring on, I _really_ had to tug on the pliers hard. Maybe other springs aren't as tough?
@@101Volts he did say, wear eye protection
@@101Volts literally 90 seconds into the video dude lol come on
I will never do this on my own car, but ill watch this whole vid cuz its so entertaining
Garrett P what are you scared.. Or it doesn't apply
Mike T Doesn't apply, none of my cars have disc brakes 😂
oh shit my car doesnt even have drum brakes lol
I just replaced my 4 brake pads and rotors by study from his video lol
ROFL
Is anyone else in 2023 waiting for the drum brakes to brake caliber conversion? Lol
We know ur a busy man. Thanks for this video and all the others you've done that helps a lot!
I'm so glad I bought a Ford Ranger, cause Chris's truck is practically the same. Saves me from a ton of pain.
Ive been a mechanic for awhile now, and was sent here due to the youtube algorithm, and Chris makes drum breaks look sooooooo easy. Im over here yelling at the car and hitting the pads with rubber mallets to get them to line up right. Chris is just like: hold my hand tools, im going in
Hey would you happen to know what would happen to my car if I turn it on and press the brake while the car doesnt have wheels or drums ?
Depends. If it's rear wheel drive (assuming the drums are on the rear) and put in drive, hubs will spin at an increasingly faster rate until max rotational speed is reached. At that point, either catastrophic failure or heat builds up in the diff and it fails after x amount of time. Only way to stop it is to turn off the vehicle or place it in neutral until the rotation stops.
If it's front wheel drive, the brakes will grab the rotors and stop the wheels/hubs.
Hey Hank's Adventure, could I ask you...I recently got my rear drum brakes replaced as the shoes were worn down. Since the break job I have been getting like a chirping noise when braking (gentle braking like approaching a red light, not forceful braking). It sounds like a rubbing or catching, and the "chirp" is faster or slower relative to yr speed of the car. The mechanic tried to fob me off saying it was maybe wheel bearing or shocks/struts, but it only happens when breaking and I only noticed it since the brake job. Could it be something as simple as the shoe rubbing on the backing plate or needing some lubrication? Thank you for reading this! 🙏
Holy crap , I have never seen a tutorial so easy to follow, so clean , no over talking, to the point, great vid editing 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Your videos are, in my opinion, stellar. I’m a visual learner, showing how the drum works, excellent. Your before and after shots, super informative. Your energy keeps me watching and I never take long blinks. Your knowledge, you never shudder for words you know what you’re going to say and you say it using proper descriptions. You could be a film maker, thank you Chris you have given me inspiration and confidence, you are the Man….. thanks you from Napa, California, “Wine Country”…….
Thanks a lot
Been doing brakes for many years, about over a decade. Never knew about the wrench trick for the springs. Very nice video, and everything is 100% spot on. I've seen some shops do a lot worse, and cut corners, but not all shops do though.
Why am I watching this when I don't have a car with drum brakes? Maybe because ChrisFix's videos are so great that I have to watch each and every one of them
Michael S same! 8 months later, but still same
Moni C yup, ya
hey Chris, a new feature I think some people might like is in the end of your vid you say how much it cost to do the job at home and how much it might cost at the mechanic. so we can see how much were actually saving
Kingg1 Omar that's actually a solid idea :)
Kingg1 Omar very nice idea
+Nivela Games thanks man
It would be nice, he did have some kind of cost sheet at some point if memory serves me well, but, there's no doubt that you're saving money (and if you do it right, safety) by doing it yourself. I'm not advocating everyone do it, if you're not certain about it, by all means, spring for the top quality shop to do it, but for any person that knows how to hold a screwdriver right, this is much more economic.
You'd definitely save a lot doing it yourself. how much? I don't know. But it's worth it anyway
This video is very clear, I was thinking of how to fix same type of brake drum for my forklift myself but your demonstration has saved me a great deal. Thank you very much.
Pretty cool to hear this is the same setup for a forklift! Thanks!
Wow, what a great video..... I just did the drum brakes on my son in law's Ford Ranger..... the information in here (and in the comments) was super helpful. Nice work, Chris Fix!
as an OLD man I never had a camera to take photos of the brake ...I just take the other drum off and look at the other brake as reference...by the way,you provide a superb service, I'm sure folks are very appreciative...thank you!!!
Yes still wanting the drum to disc conversion sir love the videos
Given that the video never appeared it must have gone terribly wrong.
I agree
@penn707 link?
I been looking for that lol. So never did it huh?
Lol I want to see that to because other videos I watched were super involved
I've been needing my drums brakes changed for a couple months now. I was super nervous about doing it myself given how many little parts there are. But I finally did them today and it really wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be. Words cannot express how happy I was to finally learn and replace drum brakes myself! Thanks Chris ❤
You rock bruv. Your vids have helped me do disk brakes on 3 cars, drum brakes on my Ranger, major annual servicing on 3 different vehicles, and a timing belt and water pump. Appreciate the time you've taken and wanted to say thank you.
First
of all, everyone here should gladly enjoy ChrisFix's videos, and with that said, everyone have a good day and eventually a happy new year!
hunter dawso seen what you did there 😂👍
hunter dawso
hahaha, this is awesome! Happy new year!
Little tip: You could do one drum at a time, to use a live reference(your other drum with the springs on) on the other side of your car :)
I always do that when I do drum brakes. GREAT TIP! Thanks
Very important. Keeps you from going nuts.
This is probably the best tip for drum brakes, and I used the hell out of it. I don't know about anyone else, but it seems like no matter how many reference pictures I take I always end up missing an angle I need.
Take apart ALL the things!
unless the last numnut in there did them wrong.
dude, you're a lifesaver, thank you so much for making these videos
Chris. I love you man. You've saved me thousands...you've also ignited my passion for mechanics...making it more enjoyable than stressful. ..God bless you man ❤
who else gets excited when Chris uploads new vid!?best diy channel rh!
4 years later I still waiting the drum to disk brake conversion
I pray for that will come soon XD
Same
Dude I need to watch that damn video for my truck 😂 drum brakes are old tech 😭
He's just getting his money's worth out of the brand new drum brakes he installed lol
I just got a 1989 Pontiac Firebird and they come with drum brakes which I find quite ridiculous so I’ve been waiting for a ChrisFix video on how to do a disc conversion.
The best explanation of drum brakes I have heard. I've been working on stuff for 25+ years and drum brakes were still intimidating. I was regearing my rear end, and was more worried about the drums than setting up the R&P 🤷♂️. I have successfully installed drum brakes a few times, but it has always been a struggle. The explanation of what exactly everything does took the misery out of it. I still believe these were invented by Rube Goldberg, but at least I have a basic understanding of why these are assembled the way they are. Thanks for yet another excellent tutorial.
Chris, What makes me love these brake videos even more is the fact I just picked up a 2000 Ford Ranger and these apply exactly to what I’m doing. Thanks for the content.
I don't have a car with drum brakes. Heck, I don't even have a car. Yet I still watched the entire video
Learn all your can so when you get a car you can work on it.
Mac Doodles Learn! There is no feeling like the feeling you get when you beat the system of paying overpriced labor costs from these shops that promise the world!
Mac Doodles I can tell you I've thrown money at a lean code problem at my truck. But I still have saved thousands doing work on my truck.
same here! i think chris has hit the sweet spot between satisfying, entertainment and education videos.
T3Survival
For real, this one guy paid $1500 for two rear shocks in his e46 BMW, in reality they are $200 in parts and can be done in under an hour with basic hand tools.
1:23 underappreciated transition
@Jackson Stock
Good eye
Damn yeah that was slick asf haha nice
it was so well done no none noticed it :(
1:43 is even better
Jackson Stock at 425 is pretty good too
Chris, awesome job on the video! Easy to follow, no too wordy, just perfect! Just did a brake job on my car yesterday and hubby’s truck today! Thanks for a very informative video! 👏🏻👏🏻
Chris, you are a teacher! Thank you very much for your great video. I have always been impressed with your enthusiasm to share knowledge with people, and I can't neglect to tell you how much I appreciate it.
Excellent video. I really like Chris' positive attitude and am so thankful for the time he puts into these. I just did my Ranger rear drums and set the self adjuster just a bit too tight. It was hard to separate the friction from the brake shoes from the usual friction of moving the rear end and driveshaft, so I thought it was correct, but obviously wasn't. So went for a test drive and smelled burning brakes. Put my hand on the rim and drum and it was smoking hot. So backed off the self adjuster a few turns and now all is well. Anyway, thought others could learn from my misstep. So doesn't hurt to take it for a test drive and put your hand (carefully) on the rims and drums afterwards, just to be sure there's no friction.
I've never felt so satisfied with a KRplus video as much as I am now with this one. You're the best!!
Great job Chris. You hit all the marks. I love how you recommend thoroughly cleaning everything before starting. I can't stress how important that is.
Man! You did such a great job explaining everything! Your camera angles were on point! You are a great instructor! Any young mechanic would be very lucky to have you mentoring them. My job was not nearly as fast, but it did get completed because of your video, thanks again Chris!!
Old ChrisFix: "hey guys chrisfix here.."
New ChrisFix: " HEY GUYS CHRISFIX HERE!"
It used to be “I’m gonna show you how to”
HAHA one of the things i noticed too
Yeah. 😎😂😇😊🤟
Ad revenue makes people really excited.
This is by far the best 'how to' video I think I've ever seen on KRplus. Great job ChrisFix.
I'll second that. It's nice to see someone explain what they are doing without fumbling around trying to figure out what they are doing while they are trying to explain what they are doing. ChrisFix did a great job. Clear, concise, keep it simple explanation. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
I'm going to do a full brake job on my 96Geo Tracker. This will be my first attempt. Your videos are absolutely excellent. You get into the nitty gritty with all the details. I love how you get the camera right up close and personal. You are making the best DIY videos I have seen.
Excellent video! This is hands down my go to channel for all things automotive. Recently watched one of your older videos on drum brakes. It’s amazing how much your presentation has evolved from 10 years ago! Nice job.
best thing about chrisfix is that he has 1.5 million subscribers and still answer tons of comments not like other youtubers who ull find having 200k subscribers and say he has alot so he can't reply
Xx_BOB_xX true!!
I just changed my drum brakes and I didn't have to look at the repair manual I just looked at your video. Your videos are great.
There is a reason why you are #1 on KRplus. Great for us weekend warriors.
Wow! Great job. Thanks a bunch for re-educating this old timer on how to replace drum brakes. Did it as a kid with my beater cars, but it's been awhile.
ChrisFix has GOT to be the best car repair video series on the entire internet! Thank you Chris!
This is, without question, the best repair video I've ever seen! It was very clearly filmed and explained, with just the right amount of information. Nice job!
I have watched a bunch of videos on doing this and this one was by far the best! You gave great detail, very specific and actually ran through the whole process. Thank you.
The video is fast-paced without omitting important steps. Appreciated that you showed us the alternative methods when specialty tools are not available. Great job.
one of the best most articulated instructions Ive viewed for any DIY project ever. including my own !!
Hey Chris don't forget to change your blinker fluid before winter hits us it could be dangerous with bad blinker fluid
DevilishModz I think he would be more worried about rotating from summer air to winter air in the tires as winter air gives more traction on snow and ice filled roads.
don't forget autumn air for those wet leaf filled roads in october.
Thanks for the tip! I have a video on that here: krplus.net/bidio/dZp_pYiadJmVYZw
Don't forget to grease your muffler bearings. Lol
Thank you Christopher. I don't know what I would have done without you
This is, without doubt, the best DIY video I've ever seen. Right to the point without pontification on the philosophy of changing brake shoes, drums, and cylinders. Great tutorial. If I need more help on doing auto work, I will definitely be checking your web. Good Job.
ChrisFix is a great mechanic that makes perfect tutorials on almost every aspect of repairing and maintaining your car. I have now saved thousands of dollars thanks to him and hope to start flipping trucks soon. Who knows how much cash he has saved his viewers. I am so appreciative of these videos, thanks Chris!!
I'm glad you've saved some money because of the videos! Thanks a lot Taylor!
The BEST instructor I have ever known. To be so young and full of knowledge blows my mind. Anytime I experience a vehicle issue I always check out Chris’s you tube channel first. Thank you for sharing your gift (talents). BTW, I own a 2000 Mazda B3000 p/u same color like yours. You make tackling projects effortlessly. Your instructions are precise, you need to sell instructional videos. Again thanks for all. Does Dad still own the Jag? Does Mom still fly in her T-bird?
You
You make videos that explain the whole process so well. I've been working on my own stuff since I was a kid, but there were some parts I'd never had to replace. My wife only knew what she could figure out on her own. With your help, we've done tie rod ends, a MAF sensor, struts, and this weekend we're tackling drum brakes. Keep doing what you're doing, you are greatly appreciated!
Chris you are the man, your videos are so clear and concise. Tools, Materials, Lubricants etc you cover it all. I am far from a grease monkey with a terrible mix mash of tools, but your coverage of the right tool and the next best option gave me the confidence to tackle both a full Drum brake and Caliper brake and Rotor replacement. Keep it up, now when I look for vehicle how to video's your name goes to the front of the search.
Sending love and respect from the Navajo Nation! Living on the reservation we don’t have a lot of mechanics or garages. These videos have taught me so much and saved me $$$!
Ahe’hee(thank you) Chris!
Glad the videos are helpful!!!
Thanks Chris! I just finished changing drum brakes by myself for the first time thanks to you!
Nice work!
Glad it worked, im doing my first on Saturday, this video explained so well and made it seem so eazy.
You make some of the most detailed and complete videos on this kinda stuff out there!
I DIG YOUR ENERGY. I turned wrenches for a living many years ago and I still find you're
videos entertaining and informative. Keep doing what you're doing and I'll keep watchin'
I have watched many drum brake videos. This is by far the best and most complete. I have used many of the same tips over the years. Thanks for posting.
Excellent presentation, I have been wrenches on cars for over 45 years and I just learned something new. Thanks for your clear and precise presentation. Good job well done
U narrate PERFECTLY as well as show how it’s done without all the EXTRA talk. U are a wonderful teacher💯💯💯💯💯
Seeing this makes me really appreciate my disk brakes lol
Rikster Me too. I'm cringing watching him do this job.
Most cars still use drum hardware inside the rear rotor for the parking brakes unless you have it on the caliper like on those new calipers he bought. I have seen those parking brake shoes for disc brakes wear out or the brake material gets cracked or even separate off of the shoe on older vehicles.
haha which is why we will be doing a conversion!
why? he did such a good job. when i replace drum brakes its not nearly as good as him.
ChrisFix hey chris did you already made a video of the drum brake conversion ?
Truly a saint of the Angel Combustion. Your videos are always appreciated in a pinch.
Thanks Chrisfix. You're helping people almost 10 years later with this video.
Well done mate, best drum replacement video I've seen. I like the way you just keep moving forward and explain things well. Keep up the good work mate, cheers.
This has to be one of THE BEST instructional videos on something I was afraid to tackle.
I ALWAYS (and I recommend you also watch multiple videos of the same fix.) Yet this guy has been consistently the best (to my acutual experience under the car), gives more tips, covers multiple scenarios, and the videos are consice.
This is the best video I have ever seen on automotive repair. Keep up the great work. 😊
He did a very nice job on this video. I have always reused the old hardware and never had any problems with them. When possible I like to remove the drum and use a regular water hose and just hose off everything inside the brakes. It saves on using chemicals and works for me. Last, when installing or uninstalling the top springs I clamp the vise grips on to the top of the spring and pull the spring over the top post. You can also have a machine shop turn your drums if they aren't to bad in order to save some money.
This helped us reassemble our drum brakes, thanks a lot for your help Chris!
best dam video ive seen on changing drum pads , PERIOD!!!!!!! this is the only one you need to watch
Thank you so very very much for this detailed step by step video on how to change the drums! Here in the last month I've been having to do repair work on my own Toyota sienna. Gas prices are so high and repair costs have gone up. I am 60 years old and just a couple days ago, I replaced the two complete replacement headlights and front brake pads. Now I have to change the drums and I'm going to get a whole kit so that way the back side will be completely new. And your video has shown me excellent details on how to repair this!
hey can you do a video on how to super clean your engine bay
Righttttt
Tony Fernandez cover your wires and MAF sensor with a plastic bag them spray lightly with all purpose cleaner them wash then dry
Don't spray hard light spray water 💦
ok noted, thank you very much. ill try and do it tomorrow
Asked him this same question about 4 months ago, got a reply from him saying he'll do it soon but nope, nothing yet!
Chris, you are an excellent instructor.
Chris, you inspired me to get back to working in my own vehicles! Your Super Clean series is awesome too! Just bought a 93 Toyota Pickup project and having a great time. Thanks man!
Well done, sir! Very thorough and informative, plus the pace of the video was great. No wasted time, plus time saving tips. I look forward to more content from you in the future .
Great instructional video , no BS was right to the point and fast moving. Very good job Chris
You are now a pro at this. great vid. To the point with relevant info and good video shots to support it. Efficient and well edited. ThanksT You earned the huge audience and all the thumbs up!
Thanks a lot!
Thanks for the amazing video. The way you cover every little detail plus show ways to avoid buying special tools is super helpful. My daily has a drum parking brake inside the rotor. I tried to replace the hub bearing a few weeks ago but 300,000 km of rust (Canadian winters are salty af) meant that I couldn't get the hub off the drum brake assembly. I ended up putting everything back together and taking it to my mechanic but if I had known how to take drums apart I could have disconnected the cable and taken the whole hub and drum assembly to the shop and saved most of the labour.
Did u have nervous diarrhea
Wonderful- you did this very, very well! No -BS - all the info that’s needed. Good how you show how to use a common tool instead of going and buying special tools.Great filming and great tip about the picture taking and laying everything out properly, so in case of doubt you can retrace your steps. No pushy - sucrose now - great job and Thanks a lot
I love how organized the workshop is.
I’m a man that loves knowing where everything is, neat ☺️
You produce some of the best, most thought out and well produced videos on KRplus. Great job.
Thanks a lot Travis!
You have the most thorough videos I have ever seen. Easy to understand and straight to the point. Great job!!
After I did the rear brakes, I usually start to back up slowly and apply the brakes. This helps the self-adjusters to adjust. I am an old man and that was how I was taught back in 1969 which has worked for me all these years.
Dang man. I don't know how you do it. Perfection at its finest. Awesome job.
Very detailed, this kind of video makes youtube a good place to learn, and Chris always makes it possible. Thanks!
Bought a 2003 Ranger for work. Found out both drums were seized up. Have never worked on drum brakes before. As usual I watched a ChrisFix video and had no issues removing drums that were stuck, replaced the shoes, hardware and wheel cylinders. Had a leaky brake line fitting, took care of that as well (not sure if you have a brake line bending video). You're the man. Thank You
Awesome! Glad the video was helpful! I will be doing a brake line and fitting video so stay tuned!
I can’t believe that your drums are EXACTLY the same as the ones I’m changing and the car I’m working on is 55 years old. Some things never change 😅😅
Really appreciate your channel. Clear, concise videos and narration 👏🏻👏🏻
Who else watching this video while waiting to get his car fixed? Both cylinder exploded today on my car. Bill will be £230.
Even if I watch this video 100 times I wouldn't be able to change this on my car but somehow your videos makes me feel LIKE a mechanic! Thanks for your effort ChrisFix
Haha awesome
Thanks Chris! I've done drum brakes before, and never like doing them, mostly because I'm not familiar with them (pics are a huge help). This video will make a great reference to keep things on track in the future. I've replaced motors, done head gaskets, and various other big jobs, but for some reason, I hate drum brakes. Ha ha. Thanks for the help man!
Me too mate
Same! But feeling more confident after watching this about three times
Denny's Country Life , and the rest of your choice
Wow! That was so crisps and full details from A to Z!!! Thank you very much ChrisFix! 😊
This is a very good teacher. He uses the flash back technique at the beginning
Chris, thanks so much for putting this video together. This is one of the best DIY videos I've come across on youtube. Well done! I'm off to take my brake apart on my 53 Nash Rambler thanks to you!
Awesome! Thanks a lot!
Fantastic video Chris ,, crisp , clear, detailed video and expertly explained , keep it up ! simply fantastic !! Bill Ireland .
Best video I've ever seen for drums, awesome! Thank you for being direct and to the point. A+
Thanks again for this helpful video. Being a first time, this repair took me much longer than expected. My set up was very similar but different enough to make it more challenging. Would really help to have a second set of hands to hold the new brake shoes in place while you put the retainers back in especially if one is holding the adjuster arm like mine does. For those new to doing this I highly recommended lots of gloves, a mask and protective eye wear. My mask was quite dirty by the end. The one thing I learned myself putting the top springs back on was they have to be done at just the right angle otherwise you're just fighting against the spring which can send you flying. Having a brake tool with that notched end really helped.
These videos are so well edited and precise thanks
I am looking forward for the drum to disc conversion!...
Be safe Chris, if something happens to you I'll be forced to start reading about all the things you teach us here in this channel...
I cant stand the arrogance of other car guys in KRplus.
Juan Cabeza I hear you. I try to edit my videos the same way.
The mech a nic
I dont know man!... Chris is doing a great job so far!...
If Chris stop doing his videos then I'll gladly jump straigh to your channel.
I respectfully pass on this one this time sir!
Juan Cabeza you can watch as many channels as you want. Also he isn't asking you to view his channel.
Chaos Descent
Thanks for the info!
Chaos Descent thanks for clearing that up.yes you can subscribe to as many channels as you'd like.
That was a superb complete, step-by-step instructional video! I’m using this as a guide to replacing my drum brakes! 😷🤙🏼
