Q: How to service and repair the brake drum on Mercury Cougar?
A: Brake drum maintenance process starts with unscrewing wheel nuts followed by suspension of the vehicle. The service process of brake drums starts with wheel removal and followed by automatic brake shoe adjustment before discarding the brake drum. Drivers should first detach all retainers before completely pulling out the drum when retainers are installed on the vehicle. Start by installing the brake drum followed by the retainers only when needed. The wheel installation should be followed by activating the brake pedal to activate automatic adjustment.
