Made a boo boo and left the e brake engaged for 50 miles and turns out the passenger rear drum locked up and I left a long skidmark in a parking lot trying to leave before it eventually freed up.
Finally opened that side up yesterday, no hardware is broken, but the front shoe overheated, has a lot of cracks in the material and its quite thin, so I am figuring on new shoes and hardware kit...may as well do both sides.
Seems a lot of people replace the wheel cylinders at the same time, but when I pressed the brake pedal all the way down, the cylinder works both ways so despite that heat, I guess its ok.
The drum itself looks ok, no grooves but last time I did a system like this over 20 yrs ago, we turned the drums at the auto parts store to resurface them.
These days, I think thats a lost art? Do they still do it at Autozone etc?
Otherwise, if I dont get them resurfaced, will there be problems down the road with new shoes?
