A brake shoe carries the friction lining that the brake presses outward against the inside of the spinning drum to slow the wheel. This Wagner shoe is cataloged for front and rear drum positions, depending on the application. It is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications.
Signs your drum brake shoes may need replacing include a grinding or scraping noise when braking, a low or soft pedal, a parking brake that holds poorly, or lining worn thin at inspection.
Mounting hardware and parking brake levers are not included. Transfer or replace them as directed by the vehicle's service procedure. Replacing the shoes on both sides of the axle at the same time is recommended for even, balanced braking. Country of origin: China.
