The brake drum on the Dodge Omni is the rotating cast-iron bowl that the Omni drum brake shoes press against to slow your vehicle. Mounted to the rear axle hub of your Dodge Omni, it spins with the wheel and provides the friction surface that the shoes contact under braking. Unlike brake rotors, which can be visually inspected from outside the wheel on many Omni vehicles, Dodge Omni brake drums fully enclose the shoe assembly, which means wear and damage often goes unnoticed until braking performance on the Dodge Omni is noticeably affected.
Standard OEM-Grade Drums for the Dodge Omni
Standard OEM-grade cast-iron drums for the Dodge Omni are manufactured to the original equipment diameter, wall thickness, and surface finish specification for your Omni. They are the direct replacement for the factory Omni drum with no modification required.
Coated Brake Drums for the Dodge Omni
Coated Dodge Omni brake drums feature a corrosion-resistant coating applied to the external drum surfaces of your Omni, the hat section, outer wall, and wheel mounting face. Surface rust is a common issue on Dodge Omni drum brake vehicles in US, particularly during periods of non-use in winter when moisture and salt collect inside the Omni wheel well. A coated drum on your Dodge Omni resists surface rust that can transfer to the wheel mounting face, making future drum removal significantly easier at the next Omni brake service.
Dodge Omni brake drum replacement requires matching the correct inner diameter, wall thickness, bolt circle, hub bore, and drum offset for your Omni. Errors in any of these dimensions produce incorrect shoe-to-drum clearance, uneven wear, and braking problems on the Dodge Omni. Our vehicle selector eliminates those risks by confirming the correct drum for the Dodge Omni exact year, make, model, and axle. Coated Omni drum options are available for vehicles with heavy salt exposure.
How long do brake drums last on a Dodge Omni?
Dodge Omni brake drums typically last 150,000 to 200,000 kilometres with periodic resurfacing, significantly longer than disc brake rotors on the Omni. Each resurfacing removes material from the Omni drum and reduces wall thickness. Once the Dodge Omni drum reaches its maximum allowable inner diameter, it must be replaced rather than turned again.
Should I replace brake drums on my Dodge Omni in pairs?
Yes. Replace both Dodge Omni drums on the same axle to maintain balanced braking. Drums of different inner diameters on the Omni create uneven friction forces, causing the Dodge Omni to pull to the fresher-drum side during braking.
Should I replace drums and shoes at the same time on my Dodge Omni?
Yes, it is strongly recommended for the Dodge Omni. New shoes on a scored or out-of-round Omni drum wear unevenly from day one. New Dodge Omni drums with old shoes that have worn to match the old drum surface will contact the new bore incorrectly. Replacing both together on the Omni ensures proper break-in and maximum service life from both components.
