Rear Drum Brakes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Mercury Villager. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The rear drum brakes use an internal hydraulic rear wheel cylinder with expanding brake shoes and linings that are applied against a rotating brake drum. An incremental brake adjuster screw is actuated whenever sufficient wear occurs. Brake adjustment takes place in forward or reverse braking, but not with parking brake application.
