Frequently asked questions

What is the 21A1279 rear brake drum used for?
The 21A1279 is a rear brake drum for the Mini and Mini Cooper S, fitting models from 1984 onwards. It's the rotating drum the rear brake shoes press against to slow the vehicle.
How many rear brake drums are needed for a full replacement?
Most workshops replace rear brake drums in pairs, one per rear wheel, to keep braking performance even across the axle, so a full rear replacement typically needs two.
What tools are needed to fit a rear brake drum?
Fitting typically means removing the wheel, releasing the handbrake mechanism, and sliding the drum off the hub. Basic hand tools are usually enough, though a drum puller helps if it's seized.
Why does a rear brake drum need replacing?
Brake drums wear from friction contact with the shoes and can develop scoring, an oval shape, or cracks over time. Visible grooves on the braking surface, or a diameter beyond the manufacturer's maximum, are signs to replace it.
