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