And that one spring creates a fold in the space-time continuum and disappears forever into an alternate universe even though you HEARD the 'tink" of it hitting the far side of the garage… This is why I HATE drum brakes… ---

Last drum brake job I broke my spring tool. Got a little cut out on the end so it doesn’t slip as you slide the spring on down. I saved the parts thinking maybe weld it together again but then thought it’s a lot easier to just never work on drum brakes and never buy a car with them anymore.
