​DIY Dodge Ram 1500 Rear Brake & Rotor Change (Manual Parking Brake) | FIX Seized Cable & Shoes

This is the second part of the Ram 1500 brake series! Learn how to change the rear brakes and rotors on your 2019 Ram 1500 4x4, focusing on the manual, cable-actuated parking brake system. I'll show you how to deal with a seized parking brake cable/shoe mechanism—a very common problem on these trucks—and perform the final adjustment.
​
​In this complete step-by-step tutorial, I replace the rear pads and rotors on my 2019 Ram 1500 Classic (using Max Advance Brake Elite XDS). These trucks are the same from 2013 to 22019 Classic. As a licensed mechanic, I take you inside the drum-in-hat parking brake assembly to show you the components. You'll learn how to free up the stuck parking brake lever and make the necessary mechanical adjustments to ensure the brakes work properly and stop dragging.

​You'll learn the essential rear brake steps:
​✅ Safely removing and reinstalling the rear brake caliper and bracket.
​✅ Detailed instructions for dealing with a seized parking brake lever/actuator.
​✅ Servicing the internal parking brake shoes and hardware.
​✅ How to properly adjust the manual parking brake tension after reassembly.
​✅ The correct way to compress the rear caliper piston.
