When you press the brake pedal, the force is transmitted through the master cylinder, generating hydraulic pressure. This pressure travels through the brake lines to each brake assembly, including the drum brake system. Within the drum brake assembly, the brake cable is pulled, which then activates the lever. As the lever moves, it pushes the brake shoes against the drum, effectively slowing down the vehicle.

Another common cause of frozen drum brakes is rust buildup. Over time, the metal components of the brakes, such as the drums and backing plates, can corrode, especially if they are not adequately maintained. This rust can create friction that causes the brakes to seize.

Additionally, over time, paint can chip or wear away, leading to debris that may interfere with the brake components. Routine inspections should be conducted post-painting to ensure that the brakes are functioning correctly and that there are no adverse effects from the paint.
