2006 Sprinter 3500 T1N Rear Brakes (Video is way too long) 

Why are you up so late?

Yeah, it's suprizingly common on older vehicles here due to rust. My only safety concern would be a hydraulic failure at highway speed, and in that case, the parking brake wouldn't do much in a panic stop anyway.

Dam, that’s why I came to this video doing the drum brakes now, it seems I can do it without removing the axle assembly but still a headache , thx for the info tho

@nasty954 They are pretty basic cable/drum setup. The adjusting nut is usually the most annoying part. Without checking the service manual, I would usually make sure the cables pull evenly before adjusting the nut. If you have a second person who can pull the handle over and over, it goes fairly quick. I also do all those adjustments before putting calipers or anything on so I can remove the rotor and get the adjustment as close as possible before having to poke at it through the back plate. With new shoes and rotors, there won't be a lip or corrosion in the way.

​@@nasty954 same here, came here hoping for a revelation I could use with my 3500. Disappointed at the parking brake delete.
