1 - screw; 2 – brake drum; 3 - protective cap; 4 - hub nut; 5 - hub; 6 – a bolt of fastening of a brake board; 7 - brake shield assembled with a brake mechanism; 8 – a cable of a drive of a parking brake; 9 - axis trunnion; 10 – brake tube; 11 - wheel speed sensor; 12 - plug (on models without ABS); 13 – a bolt of fastening of the gauge; 14 - rear suspension beam; 15 - rear suspension beam (version)
A defective brake drum reduces the life of the brake pads, resulting in inefficient and uneven braking.
1. Replace the brake drum if its inner diameter has reached the maximum allowable value.
2. If deep scratches, chips or ovality are noticeable on the working surface of the drum, such a drum must also be replaced.
3. Remove the wheel by first loosening the bolts of its fastening on the car standing on the ground.
4. Make sure the parking brake lever is pushed all the way down (parking brake released).
5. Take off the brake pads. To do this, through the hole for the wheel bolts in the drum with a screwdriver (see fig. Mixing brake pads) push up the adjusting wedge (there is a special ledge on the wedge for this).
6. Remove screw 1 (see fig. Installing the brake drum mechanism of the rear wheel) attaching the brake drum to the hub.
7. Remove the brake drum 2. If difficult to remove, remove the disc with a rubber or polymer hammer.
8. Install a new brake drum and secure it with screw 1.
9. Bolts of fastening of a wheel finally tighten only on the car standing on the earth.
10. Press the brake pedal several times to automatically adjust the position of the brake pads.
Internal diameter of the brake drum, mm:
- nominal - 200
- maximum allowable - 201
The tightening torque of the brake drum mounting screw is 4 Nm.
