Where is the DIY drum brake information? I see one under Maintenance but all the pictures are gone. I'd like to do my drum breaks and also fix my parking break but I don't want to get into a mess. I have not done drum breaks.

Thanks,

Scoob

Thanks very much, Sir, that should get me started when I have time later this spring.

Later this Spring?

When you post up an issue on a forum, the question is assumed to be timely, i.e. you are requesting help on an existing issue. Now, you have until "when you have time later this spring" to lose the attached DIY PDFs, the link to them, or both and are back here again reposting the same request.

FYI: I had no problem finding both of the DIYs I attached for your convenience in the Brake subforum. I respectfully suggest you spend some time perusing this forum so you see how things are laid out; it will only help you down the road with other issues, maintenance tips, etc. As a general rule, specific DIYs are posted at the top of each subject subforum, i.e. brake DIYs in the brake subforum, items specific to servicing, mods, etc for the 2000-2006 Tundras in the Gen-1 forum, and so on.

I know you're fairly new here, but a simple search would have found all you needed.

buy chilton's manual, it has a very good writeup with pics on front and rear brake jobs.

Thanks for the information.

The only PITA part of servicing the drums is removing the return spring. When you get it done, reply back to this thread and let us know how it goes for you.
