Default Drum brake is knocking - 12-03-2006 , 02:25 AM






2002 Pontiac Sunfire with rear drums. Just replaced the drums and
shoes/linings. Now there is a knocking noise only under moderate
braking and gets louder with more force on the brakes. The knocking
sounds like something is hitting from the rotation of the wheel since
it is faster knocking when braking at higher speeds and slower
knocking when braking at slower speeds. Help! :?

id take the drums off and see if you can see what it is. if you feel
it in the brake pedal your drum may be out of round.
