Question:
When checking the brake drums, you should inspect for the following:
- The brake drums should be round and smooth. If they are out of round, they may cause the brakes to pulsate or vibrate when applied.
- Illegal welds are welds that have not been performed by a qualified welder. Illegal welds can weaken the brake drums and make them more likely to fail.
- Cracks in the brake drums can lead to brake failure. If you see any cracks in the brake drums, they should be replaced immediately.
