Quick facts
- Part: Carlson H181 drum brake shoe return spring kit
- Fits: 2004 Jeep Wrangler and other vehicles

Worn or stretched return springs can leave the shoes touching the drum, which can show up as a dragging brake, uneven shoe wear or noise at the wheel. Before you replace these springs, rule out other causes of drag, such as a sticking wheel cylinder or adjuster, since they can feel the same.
