measure inside diameter of brake drum (where brake shoes touch drum) and measure outside diameter of brake rotors. usually if you look at wheel side of drums and rotors the size is stamped in millimeters on each
there are brake shoes in the discs too . just remove the discs and you will see them. they are applied by a cable.
One can purchase brake discs from a variety of stores. Stores such as AutoAnything, eBay, GSF Car Parts, Auto Parts Warehouse, and Walmart sell brake discs.
Depends on what kind of "discs" you're referring to... (compact discs? brake discs?)
Parking brakes are all operated by a cable, which you tighten by pulling the lever. If the car has discs brakes all around, the problem is almost always that the cable is rusted in the sheath. If the car has rear drum brakes, the problem can also be a jammed lever inside the drum.
NO! No...no...no...! Do not put any grease on your brake discs, copper grease is used to put on the 'back' of the brake pads (not the part of the pad that comes into contact with the disc).
I have a 2002 Stratus Sedan, and mine are discs.
Typically integral parking brakes are on rear disc braking systems. By activating the parking brake it adjusts the discs on the rear brakes. While the front discs are self adjusting, on the integral systems the rear discs are not self adjusting, thus the need for the integral parking brake system.
Only if they are defective.
The caliper might be sticking
The friction of braking makes brake drums and discs very hot.
replace front brake discs and pads.
On my 2007 Sonata I had to replace the brake pads and rotors at 57000 miles.
