The Pontiac 6000 brake shoes do need replacing about every 50K miles or so. When replacing the Pontiac 6000 brake shoes be sure to check the hardware and the wheel cylinders for damage or leakage. This is also a good time to check the brake drums for scoring or unusual wear. The Pontiac 6000 brake shoes come in a primary and a secondary shoe that needs to be replaced in the exact location that they were removed from.
Leaking Pontiac 6000 wheel cylinders are the number one cause of brake system failures on Pontiac's equipped with rear drum brakes. The o-rings on the Pontiac 6000 wheel cylinder pistons wear out over time and let the brake fluid seep thru to the outside of the cylinder. The wheel cylinder boot usually traps a small amount of fluid before it contaminates the entire rear brake assembly.
