drum brakes were used both front and rear on almost all vehicles. But in the 1970s, front drum brakes were replaced with disc brakes. Drum brakes were kept in the rear because braking loads are lighter so disc brakes are not really needed...
Figure 1. Location of drum brakes. Drum brakes work on the same principle as disc brakes: Shoes press against a spinning surface. In this system, that surface is called a drum. Many cars have drum brakes on the rear wheels and disc brakes on the front. Drum brakes have more parts ...

I'm not sure how relevant this instructable will be for newer cars, but it should work for anything from the 70's. Generally speaking, I'm not a mechanic, so, I don't know the technical terms for some of the pieces located inside the rear drum of the car...so, if you know the...
Maintenancefor drum brakes is usually restricted to cleaning the drums and shoes periodically, lubricating the lever pivot, and adjusting the cables. Cable adjustment can be made as and when required (as the lever starts to come too far back, for instance) while cleaning of the internals will ...
The 2001 Chevy Cavalier came equipped with a front disc brake system and rear drum brake system. The rear drum brakes are responsible for about 20 percent of the braking force supplied by the entire brake system. As a result, the rear brakes wear at a significantly slower rate than the fro...
Drum brakes are common in the rear wheels, while disc brakes are most common on the front wheels (or all four wheels). In a rear drum situation, the emergency brake cable runs directly to the brake shoes, bypassing the hydraulic brake system. In this simple, mechanical bypass, the ...
Drum brakes were common until the 1970s, but most motorcycles today rely on the superior performance of disc brakes. Disc brakes consist of a steel braking disc, which is connected to the wheel and sandwiched between brake pads. When the rider operates one of the brakes, hydraulic pressure, ...
Most turbines have an anemometer on them to measure the wind-speed. If the wind rises above a safe level, the brakes come on automatically and bring the rotors to a standstill. It's a shame, because higher wind speeds mean more energy could be produced. But safety always comes first!
