Exactly...




If you do not use the parking brake, or crawl under the truck and manually adjust the rear drum brake shoes, your rear brakes are likely not doing anything to help stop the vehicle.

Many times people bring me Land Cruisers and Mini trucks that have poor brakes and they want to spend all sorts of money on upgraded brake components. I adjust the rear brakes for them and they cannot believe the difference in pedal height or stopping ability of the vehicle.
