Don’t know how true it is but somebody told me years ago is the only thing those screws do is keep the brake drum from falling off when your changing a tire. Seems like a very unlikely scenario to me but it could be the big car companies covering themselves from legal problems.
Look what’s going on in the world today, we’ve got Subaru (the company that’s pushing how safe their cars are) running an commercial with a little girl breaking lugs loose while the car is jacked up !!! The proud father walks into view and says “I taught her what I could”. Dumb ass actor dad. Considering that got by everyone at Subaru I guess someone could change their tire and leave the brake drum laying on the ground ??? Sorry for being so sarcastic .
