Brakes? You mean the coward pedal?
Because trucking is one of those, that's always the way we've done it industries instead of phasing out drum brakes like a civilized society they just hardened the shoes to meet the new stopping distance. Some squeak is normal, constant squealing isn'tfarmerjohn64 Thanks this. -

It’s probably just from the bottom shoe anchors. Most don’t bother to change them, or the bushings that come in a brake kit. Instead of turning when brakes are applied, they stay rusted in place. No big deal, as long as shoes are good.
