Forgot to mention this in the video, you need to adjust both sides! The process is the exact same, except you turn the adjuster opposite directions. (drivers side = clockwise, passenger = counter-clockwise). I probably should just replace the shoes and hardware next time I need to adjust.

"It also helps if you let down the parking brake" hahaha, I loved the very subtle humor in that situation. I usually have less appropriate things to say when I realize I did something to save time on an early stage that wasted all the time I just saved in a later step when I forget to undo that trick, which happens a lot. Well done video man, appreciate the detail you put into it, keep up the great work.

There is a tool that makes that whole process easier called a brake shoe adjusting spoon. Simply remove the wheels, pull the access plug behind the adjuster and use the spoon.

There is no need to remove the rotor to adjust the parking brake. You do have to remove the sway bar link and caliper out of the way to adjust the brake if doing it with a screw driver but you do need the wheel on for seeing drag.

Good job! Its unfortunate Jeep covered the brake adjustung slot with the caliper. I suppose you could take the caliper off and use the slot and a brake spoon to ajust, but by the time you get the caliper off you might as well pull the drum and do it the way you showed.

Hey everyone! You don't need to take your wheels off for this! I was able to get the job done by climbing underneath my Jeep with a flashlight, needle nose pliers, and a brake spoon. It's a tight job with limited visibility but is entirely possible to do without lifting the vehicle. Just be careful not to overtighten, as you won't be able to do the drag test on the rotors using this method.

Thank you Chris for this helpful video. I have a question please. After replacing the handbrake shoes (left side) and doing this process, I drove my car with no problems for a long day. The second day, after releasing the handbrake , my jeep started shaking and vibrating for around 150 meters and then worked normally. It seems like the handbrake was still on. This problem appeared twice. What can I do to avoid this ?? Thank you so much.

Joe Ghanem i would double check your work, drum brake shoes are sometimes a little picky on how everything settles (springs, adjuster, etc). Pull up a picture of an assembled rear brake set up. And then compare with yours. You may have made a small mistake that is causing your issue

Perhaps you prepared beforehand, but your caliper bracket bolts were way too loose. I believe spec is over 100ftlbs and you cannot remove with a 3/8 socket wrench.

@@developmentdivision122, you did not really have to remove the Caliper separately.. you can remove the holder and caliper off as one unit to save time and less work... Also it would be a good idea to remove the "Self Adjuster" and put "Anti-seize compound"and( clean up) on the threads of the adjuster and the slotted ends and Etc. TIP. Also,if you want to be more accurate and fine in detail as to getting your hand Brake lever on 2-3 clicks, you can used a "dremel tool, with a carbon Bit in it, to just lightly clean the "Inner Edge of the Drum itself to clean off the untouched( not worn) edge of the drum.., that way the drum will slide back on perfectly as if it was a new drum/rotor, you can do this if you want a very close brake shoes-to drum clearance...BTW,This engineering design was/is always an issue and this design has to be adjusted every so often.. Engineering fug up is what I call it.... ,as the self adjuster system seldom works in gravel road and muddy conditions,as it get gummed up and it is a very "sensitive system" . TY

Strange since since you expand the pads outwards, you shouldn't be able to get the disc back on easily or at all. Hence why the access port on the back so you can spin the tire / rotor as you adjust it feeling for the drag, then your done.

Sorry but this "method" makes no sense! The correct method for adjusting drum brakes is with the drum ON!!! You tighten the shoes until they start to drag and then back off one or two clicks. Here if your "adjustment" is loose enough to slide the drum back on then you're not nearly as tight as you could/should be.
