Carlson Drum Brake Hardware Kit P/N:17360
Refresh the rear drum brakes on your 1993-1999 Nissan Altima with the Carlson Drum Brake Hardware Kit 17342. This kit brings together the small but essential rear drum hardware — anti-rattle clips, seals, pins, dust boots, drum shoe return springs, hold-down springs, and adjuster assemblies — so the shoes seat, retract, and self-adjust the way they should for consistent, balanced braking. Replacing this hardware whenever you install new brake shoes helps keep the system working properly, since worn springs and clips can fatigue along with the friction material.
Change the hardware together with the brake shoes — industry experts agree that when the friction material is ready for replacement, the hardware should be too.
