Drum Brake DIY Maintenance Guide
With the right approach, keeping the drum brakes on your Jeep Compass in top shape doesn’t require a trip to the shop. Cleaning, adjustment, and inspection go a long way in maximizing braking power and avoiding costly replacements. Following a few simple tips can help you get the most out of your drum brake system over time.
Best Tips to Make Your Brake Drums Last
1. Clean Brake Dust Regularly
Dust buildup inside the drum can accelerate wear and reduce braking efficiency over time.
2. Avoid Hard Stops When Possible
Gentler braking puts less strain on shoes and drums, helping both last longer between services.
3. Inspect for Scoring and Grooves
Visible wear marks on the inner drum surface can signal it’s time to resurface or replace the component.
4. Adjust the Brake Shoes Properly
Keeping the shoes close—but not dragging—ensures quicker response and less pedal travel.
5. Use OEM Hardware Kits
Factory-grade springs and clips maintain proper tension and alignment for smooth, balanced braking.
6. Pair With Wheel Area Upgrades
Protect your braking components by using wheel center caps to keep debris and moisture out of the drum area.
