Refresh the springs, clips and pins that keep your rear drum brakes working the way they should with the Carlson Drum Brake Hardware Kit H7297. This rear drum brake hardware kit drops in as a direct-fit replacement on the 1997-2003 Ford Escort and 1997-1999 Mercury Tracer (see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of applications). It bundles the small hardware that wears alongside your brake shoes, so you can service both at the same time.

The assortment can include anti-rattle clips, seals, pins and dust boots along with shoe return springs, hold-down springs and adjuster assemblies — the components that keep the shoes properly located and retracted for consistent, balanced braking.

  • Complete service hardware: contains the hardware needed to finish a drum brake job for straightforward installation.
  • Quieter operation: helps deliver a quieter, more efficient braking system.
  • Quality build: made to tight tolerances with quality materials.
  • OE-quality: matches Original Equipment (OE) quality specifications.

As a best practice, replace the hardware whenever you replace the brake shoes — worn springs and clips can't hold tension like new ones, which is why technicians renew the hardware with the friction material.
