drum brake replacement

Sorry to bother on this issue again. I know it has been brought up alot, but my memory is short. Have brakes needing replacement and heard of a kit where you take off old assembly and put new on. Don't have to mess with bunch of parts. Where do I get it and what is it called. Would love to put on disk, but not in budget.
Thanks

noisy fresh water pump

Since we bought our rig new in 2016 we have only used fresh water pump 3 times. It is always noisy. I have no idea where it is located or how to quiet it down. Ask Keystone where it is located and they have no idea. Any help?
Thanks

Dexter make a complete back plate assembly with forward self adjusting brakes.
Most water pumps are located behind the convenience panel.

Look behind the water supply panel for your water pump. If your supply panel is adjacent to a pass thru storage it is simply a matter of removing wall panel on the side of supply panel. Very easy access

Just throwing a few things out about both of your questions. Granted, the brake backing plate assys are easy to replace ... brake drum off ... 5 bolts ... 2 wires ... you may need to have the drums turned just like on your car if they are grooved severely. The surface where the magnets rub may be severely grooved as well and not all brake shops can turn this surface. That's going to be your call when you pull the brake drums. You will have to do the initial adjustment when it's all back together. The assys are right and left hand specific and are labeled as such do not mix them up.


If you just want to quiet down your water pump ... replace any solid plastic lines going and coming from the pump for a few feet with braided lines ... insulate any plastic lines that are in contact with cabinetry or frame with the split foam insulation found at Lowes / Home Depot like for hot water heaters. Put some thick rubber pad under the mounting feet and gently screw it back to the flooring.
