ive been told to be fairly aggresive with them. That's just what I've been told. I've honestly only replaced 1 set of pads on my own car and that was years ago. The rest I've done on other people's cars.

I was told to be aggresive and to break quickly and firmly.

also, when doing drum brakes aggressively brake going in reverse. ive never done drums, but thats what ive been told.

The process is called bedding the brakes in. It is vital for the optimum brake performance

I was told to be real light on them so they dont warp.

you're lucky you've never done drums, they're a pita. they're easy just annoying trying to get the springs back on. next week will be my first time doing disc brakes so this thread was posted at the perfect time
