Chevrolet Classic Brake Drum

The Chevrolet Classic was sold from 1964 to 1983 and from 1997. The brand was Chevrolet's second best-selling car after the 1977 Chevrolet Caprice. Chevrolet Classic comes with plenty of quality vehicles and parts, including the brake drum. The brake drum rotates in sync with the wheel and axle. When the user presses on the brakes, the lining is pushed against the surface, causing friction to slow or stop the vehicle. The drum brake is usually accompanied by two shoes that have a metal framing in which the friction lining is secured. When applying the brakes, the friction linings make contact with the surface of the brake drum causing the springs to retract the shoes once the user is done pressing the brakes.

Chevrolet Classic is famous for lots of high-quality parts. However, the old brake drum might lead to poor functions and unpleasant driving experiences after years of usage. The removal process for a Chevrolet Classic brake drum is as follows: Remove the hubcap, if applicable, next remove the lug nuts and wheel from the vehicle, and then remove the brake drum retaining screws, finally pull the brake drum off gently to not damage any components around. The main components of a Chevrolet Classic drum brake system include the following: backing plate, brake drum, brake shoes, wheel cylinder, springs, and guide pins.
