Damon550 Posted August 17, 2009 Report Share Posted August 17, 2009 i had a similar problem in my ke70 my bake cylinders were leaking so i replaced them then after the second handbrakie one popped the piston out so i pulled the brake cylinder out then fixed the rubber bit up and pushed the piston back in and never had a problem since Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
styler Posted August 17, 2009 Report Share Posted August 17, 2009 handbrake operates rear mechanical system on brakes foot pedal operates hydraulic single system on all brakes or hydraulic dual circuit system on all brakes don't know whats causing your problem, drums too worn, shoes too worn, incorrect adjustment, incorrect gaps, too much heat, warped or out of round drums, cables incorectly adjusted, wrong cylinders ie id diameter too big, adjuster if you have one not working... ??

Any help on what the "correct gaps" are to me they look correct the i changed both and been working for a month and now the right one poped changed it and poped again yet i compared it to the one thats working LOOKS EXACTLY THE SAME :P unless the the drum is warped dunno have to get someone with rolla knowledge to look at it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until you spend the 30 odd dollars on a service manual you will never know what thickness or tolerance anything should have. Do you really plan to ask the measurement/tolerance of us, not provide pictures and still have us solve a problem for you? Comeon buddy, work with us! People are willing to help you, don't waste their time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evan G Posted August 17, 2009 Report Share Posted August 17, 2009 at work if one is leaking we replace both. because "apparently" if you replace the leaking one the other one will work harder than the new one therefore leak how many you gone through? did you replace one and the other one started leaking?

Felix Posted August 17, 2009 Report Share Posted August 17, 2009 I was having a bit of a think about this. What I'd try doing is back off the handbrake adjustment at the handbrake lever. Then at the rear, adjust the drums out until they lock, then back off until they just lightly drag. Once you've done that then adjust the handbrake at the lever. If the rear shoe adjusters aren't self adjusting as they should (common for them to seize), and the handbrake adjustment at the lever is wound up, the pistons in the wheel cylinders need to travel a lot further than what they should.... possibly falling out.

Evan G Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 andrew. they are surpose to be worn unevenly (thats drums for yah) as the piston move out bottom of the shoes grabs (check figure 5) http://auto.howstuffworks.com/auto-parts/brakes/brake-types/drum-brake1.htm diagnose the problem, don't replace all the componets and hoping it fixes the problem (lights don't work, replace lights, still don't work, check whole wiring loom, find nothing, and your mate asks "did you check the fuse?" and there you know it fuse is blown) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muzke30 Posted August 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 how come there supose to wear UNEVEN can't see anything about why they were uneven on there ? like the bottom parts of my shoes have near to nothing on them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
