    How many of us apprenticed as kids holding the flashlight and pumping the brake pedal! I've done drum brakes a number of times... never thought to assemble the new shoes together first like you did. Never too old to learn something new. Great episode!

    Like others have written, really enjoying this series. And this might be the first time I ever heard someone say “I enjoyed drum brakes”.

    Finally! Someone shows the same rear brake system I have on my 96 K1500. Every other video I have seen, and Haynes and Chilton manual shows the brake adjuster on the bottom, not on top of the axle. And this video says C-1500, this truck is a K1500.

      I thought the C-1500 was the chevy and the K-1500 was the GMC? is that not correct?

      ​@@rileysrebuilds435 They're generally called the
      C/K1500 as a blanket statement. The C1500 is a 2wd. The K1500 is 4wd.
      Same with the C/K2500 ¾ ton and the C/K3500 1 ton.

    Great video, as usual! 😁👍
    BTW 6:11 I always find it easier to use a lug nut or two to hold the rotor onto the spindle/axle when reinstalling the caliper, especially when using new pads.

    This is Tanner's Truck,, he said it feels like a new truck now. (shhh, I tried to buy it off him)

      As you should. These trucks wear like luggage, but they'll never go out of style!
