Keep your rear drum brakes clean, quiet, and properly tensioned with the Carlson Drum Brake Hardware Kit (P/N H7290). This rear-position hardware kit is a direct-fit replacement for the 1993-1996 Ford Escort and 1994-1996 Mercury Tracer — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of covered applications and engines.

Fresh hardware restores the springs, clips, and pins that hold the shoes in position and return them after each stop, so the assembly stays balanced and the friction surfaces wear evenly. Industry practice is to replace this hardware whenever the brake shoes are replaced, since fatigued springs and worn clips can cause rattles, drag, or uneven shoe travel.

  • Complete rear set: includes the return springs, hold-down springs, pins, clips, and related hardware needed to service the drum assembly.
  • OE-quality build: matches Original Equipment (OE) quality specifications and is manufactured to tight tolerances with quality materials.
  • Designed to help restore braking: proper spring tension and retention help deliver quieter, more consistent shoe operation.
  • Straightforward service: contains the hardware needed for a clean drum brake reassembly.

Replace hardware on both rear wheels together for balanced braking.
