Er... back in 1998, when toyota joined the subic races for that year with the AE111, they didn't finished the races because both cars ended up with brake failure somewhere in the middle of the race (overheated the brake system???).

baka nga brake shoes yan, leading shoe and trailing shoe

mazda2.... EBD or ABS yung nasubukan mo? :D

To increase braking power in my dad's terrano, we changed the hydrovac to that of the Patrol :D Boom! instant increase in brake power.

anyways, all my rides have four wheel discs. Except for the pajero which has drum in discs for the rear. Even if mas kaunti ang braking load for the rears, i still wont trade my discs for drums.

Naw... you can't be serious?! Is there such a thing as leading and trailing brake shoe? :whoa:

**mbt** · August 25th, 2003 07:06 PM

leading shoe = shoe closer to the front wheel, trailing shoe = shoe closer to the rear bumper...? dalawa kasi yung brake shoes na kumakagat sa drum diba?

Yeah I get your point, but what's their point in placing the leading and trailing? All brake drums have 2 brake shoes in it.

Yep! Kala ko nga bagong braking system or something that I should know. Tagal ko na gusto itanong kung ano nga meron dun , lagi ko lang nalilimutan, hehehe.
