While the models are different, this process will be similar across TRX utility models. This is a more complex job than just replacing the brake pads on your hydraulic brakes. The rear brake drum on the Honda Rancher TRX420 is roughly in the middle of the rear axle, so removing and replacing the brake shoes requires the removal of the wheel and then cracking open the rear brake drum housing. Because the job is more labor intensive, it makes sense to change the four seals in the assembly if you're opening it up. There is one seal each on the front and back of the drum around the axle, one is an axle dust seal on the housing, and a fourth seal-- an O-ring-- seals the outer housing and brake drum. In this video, John will guide you through the process. We’ll remove the wheel, and then attack two axle locking nuts that we’ll need to remove in order to slip the housing out over the axle. Then, we’ll open the brake drum and replace the seals and the brake shoes. As we’re reassembling, it’s important that you correctly torque the axle nuts. John will do this by feel, but if you’re unsure that you’re getting the right torque on these nuts, there are two special tools that can assist you. Check 19:17 in the video to see exactly how these two tools work: Honda axle nut adapter: https://www.partzilla.com/product/hon...
