Drum brakes after four years and 65 000km with pix

[Fummins]

Canadian Tire no longer sells or lists the drums... Price is reasonable for shoes though. $35 as of June 14, 2022

I never actually think of looking up parts at crappy tire. I see they sorta list 2014-2015 rotors for pretty cheap at $20-something a piece.

I actually could use a couple drums for my turd but rockauto is out and I'm too lazy to look anywhere else.

Edit: I just found these "2014-2015" Drums for $48 a piece. Probably doesn't include a wheel bearing and is for a dodge omni but I may take a chance. https://partsavatar.ca/ultra-rear-brake-drum-mid82

Okay, I just ordered a set of those drums for $102 cad peso's shipped to my door. I did the chat thing first to confirm they're somewhat correct and they are indeed the 180-181mm drums. These do not include wheel bearings. I tried to save a copy of the chat log so I could post it here but that didn't work.
I'll post back in a week or two or 7 when they show up.

Rockauto has been out of stock on 2014-2015 drums for a while. Even the Centric ones that sometimes show up fully loaded or as bare drums...whichever Rockauto feels like shipping out that day...

[Fummins]

I've been keeping an eye on rock auto, I ordered 6 or so a while back and used them up pretty quickly. That Centric part number 12346026 includes the wheel bearing, abs ring and studs. There used to be 2 centric drums on rock auto with the more expensive one being just a bare drum iirc. It's not listed on rockauto anymore.

I should have removed all those abs rings from those old drums I replaced....Didn't think of that til just now. They can be hit or miss as far as removing without damaging them. I might go all out and buy all 4 wheel bearings from rock auto for another $100 shipped. I'm sure I have a front one that's noisy? Then this could snowball into sourcing front abs sensors cause they're gonna be rusted in place and they're 2014 only because the connectors are different than 2015 and newer.......Unless bearing can be replaced without removing sensor? Might have to make a tool for that?

If anyone really needs those Centric drums right now, there's a seller on eBay who has them. The shipping isn't free and the guy's feedback is a bit sketchy...

[Fummins]

That's a little pricey at $999.99 shipping.

Hmmm...I saw that and just assumed it would calculate actual shipping when I put in my zip code. Nope...it stayed $999.99 shipping.

This guy has free shipping on his other brake drums...so I'm guessing this is his way of saying he doesn't actually have any of these in stock.

If anyone is looking for smaller drum (180mm, can't tell if it comes with bearing)...
Try Winhere 666870, which is in stock...
or Geotech 2950045, which not sure about availability

205MM drums are everywhere now anywhere....and come with studs and bearing mostly...

This car was built in June 2014 and first registered in August 14.
Because the OEM parts are so terribly expensive, I opened and looked at the rear brakes for finding out in what state of wear they are. The drums are already the sort with the larger diameter, max diameter being 205mm.
The rear-most lining has 3.9mm left, and the forward lining has 3.6 mm after four years and 65000km. The actual drums are barely worn at all.

I never noticed this before but why is the lining on the left shoe so much higher than the right? i thought the two shoes were suppose to be identical?
