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