How to Install a Brake Drum on Dodge Caravan?

Before installing the brake drum, set the brake shoes so they don't get in the way. After that, put the rear brake drums onto the hubs and adjust the brake shoes wherever necessary. After that, place the wheel and tire opposite the direction the car was lowered and tighten the wheel mounting stud nuts in the correct sequence until half of the torque is reached for all nuts. Carry out the bolting procedure once more to reach 135 Nm (100 ft. lbs.); after that, you can lower the car.

How to Properly Measure and Repair a Brake Drum on Dodge Caravan?

When servicing or repairing the rear brake drum, make sure the drum diameter is more than 90 microns (0.004 inches) smaller than the smallest and less than 150 microns (0.006 inches) larger than the biggest and its runout is less than 0.15 mm (0.006 inch) out of round. Refacing is necessary for the drum if the reading from either measurement is higher than the recommended values. The best way to address brake roughness and surge is to limit your material removal during one cut to 0.13 mm (0.005 inch). When the braking surface is cleaned, making a final cut of 0.0254 mm (0.001 inch) on top with the right equipment will help the drum surface run well. Only deeper cuts may be made to remove deep score marks, not exceeding 1.52 mm (0.060 inch) deeper than the drum's diameter. You'll notice that each drum is marked with the maximum recommended diameter, for example, MAX. DIA. 251.55 mm (9.90 inch). This figure includes a little extra room for wear which is the 0.76 mm (0.030 inch) allowed beyond the usual 1.52 mm (0.060 inch) that pads are supposed to face before refacing.
