Duo-servo type drum brakes are an improved version of twin leading construction, where two brake shoes are linked. When a primary side leading shoe is pressed against the drum by the wheel cylinder, the force that makes it rotate together with the drum wedges the secondary side leading shoe into the drum to achieve braking action. This type of drum brake provides strong braking for both forward and reverse movement. It is used in commercial vehicles that require especially large braking forces.

What is the self-servo action on drum brakes?
When the brake cylinder pushes the two shoes apart, the leading shoe "wraps" with the rotating drum. This wrapping pushes the trailing shoe through the transfer bar into tighter contact with the drum providing the servo action.Notice that your leading shoe nearly always has more brake lining than the trailing shoe and also notice that it requires more pedal effort to stop a car with drum brakes when it is going in reverse than it does when the car is moving the same speed in the forward direction.
Does a duo-servo brake drum have a horseshoe-like return spring?
It depends on where the shoe anchor pin and the threaded star adjustment rod is located. If the shoe anchor is located at the top of the backing plate with the adjustment rod at the bottom between the two shoes than it is duo-servo. If the adjustment rod is located at the top between the two shoes and the anchor pin is at the bottom of the backing plate then it is a leading/trailing type drum brake system.

How do you change car brakes?
This will greatly depend on what kind of brakes you have and which parts you are trying to replace. Do you have disc or drum brakes? If you have disc brakes, do you want to replace the calipers, pads, or rotors? If you have drum brakes, do you want to replace the drum, or the shoes?
