Hmm. On the rear driver's side it's either (I'm somewhat hoping) the parking brake assembly has worked it's way out of position and has become mangled or it's the bearing, as shown here. The problem of occasional resistance and and sometimes a crunching noise (which is never good) is heard when backing up but not 100% of the time. Going forward there's no noise or grinding sound. What I did notice very recently is that whatever the problem is it is causing disintegrating metal to be thrown outward onto the surface of the wheel. Add water and the wheel is partly covered with rust when I last looked today. I am hoping that it is the parking brake mechanism on that side which would be (in theory) a somewhat easier job. I'll have to take everything apart and perform a detailed inspection.
@jordynk6651 The parking brake shoes became detached from the rest of the assembly that fits inside the drum portion of the rear rotors. Both sides to a great degree. I was hoping for this instead of the wheel bearing having gone bad and I got lucky.
@jordynk6651 Yes. The cable was in good shape. I got a kit from eBay which included new rotors, new brake pads and new parking brake shoes. Everything has been working well since I did the work in April '22.
@@uglyhp8225 That's actually reasonable for all that is involved. What would you estimate the cost today, February 2022? I'm faced with doing it myself with my stepson's help. Just over two years ago we renewed the _entire_ front suspension on a 2008 GMC Yukon Denali. Axles, control arms, tie rods, struts, etc. It was outside and during a period of cold weather (25° F daytime temperatures) but we had the luxury of time. It went well. The cost was less than half of what the chain repair shop estimated even after I bought some specialized tools for the job. Of course I am not factoring-in my time or my stepson's time. It was many hours over a two week period with breaks as we waited for parts and so forth. Thank you for this video.
