Disc Brakes vs Drum Brakes
In our last article, we went over the basics. Now that you know how brakes work, let’s talk about the different types.
The front brakes play a greater part in stopping the car than the rear ones, because braking throws the car weight forward on to the front wheels. Many cars therefore have disc brakes at the front and drum brakes at the rear. The basic function is essentially the same, but the parts are a little different.
