Re: rear brake fade

Anybody ever get this figured out? My rear brake is terrible wont even lock up when I put all my weight on it. There is no play and it is adjusted right.

Re: rear brake fade

Guys, go and switch the drums. Take both wheels off, swap the rubber thing to the front drum, then take the back drum and slap it in the front hub. Bolt it all back up and you'll be amazed at the difference.

Re: rear brake fade

I know some people that take there rear wheel off and sand there pads and inner hub. that works but there is a faster way. Go to one of those quarter car washes and use the pressure washer. Just shoot that thing into the rear hub and wash out all the brake dust. The Brake will grab good again.
