Default Re: Soft brakes and creeping

As a toyota tech and also a new owner of an 06 DC 4x4, the first thing I did @ 300 miles was adjust the rear drums under warranty. I got paid 1.5 hours for both sides. I got 24 clicks on both sides which still left them slightly loose. You don't want them too tight or they will warp the drums. If you never adjust your rear brakes they will last over 100k if you do adjust them every 5k they will only last about 70-80k. This means your front brakes will last a little longer.
