#75 of 79 brakes? by rargreencastle Dec 29, 2008 (9:52 am)
2005 Dodge Caravan-58,000 miles. Disk on the front, drums on the rear. I tried to drive the van yesterday morning. Rear wheels locked up as if the parking brake was on (I never use it). Neighbor came over, checked the parking brake cable; free and loose. He jumped up and down on the rear bumper, while I engaged and disengaged the transmission from drive to reverse. Nothing. Rear cylinders froze up? Checked the fuses; everything is o.k.? suggestions? Replies to this message: xwesx (Jan 05, 2009 8:57 am)

Replying to: rargreencastle (Dec 29, 2008 9:52 am) Do you have a recent snowfall? If you drove through deep snow, they may be literally froze up (water in there has frozen the shoes to the drums). If that is a possibility, you can heat the drums with a propane torch (as you would use for soldering copper plumbing joints) just long enough to thaw the ice, then it should pop loose.
#77 of 79 Rear Disc on 2005 Grand Caravan by robert1955 Mar 23, 2009 (7:40 am)
Hello all, I was wondering if someone had an exploded view and or a set of instructions on replacing the rear rotors and pads. I am finding out it seems like Dodge has done like Volvo did on my old 240 wagon and put a parking brake aka drum brake shoe setup inside the rear rotor to function as the parking brake.

#79 of 79 2001 caravan rear brake lockup. by muggelberg May 18, 2009 (8:30 am)
I have 2001 caravan, pass side rear brake locks tight and I can't get it to release. I heard a little clicking sound from under the dash when I apply the brakes.. I wonder if that has anything to do with it?? I don't believe the van has ABS. so I'm stumped... HELP..... If the van is in Nuteral it clicks even more and then locks right up!!   Thanks Bill
