Restore the drum brakes on your classic Chevy or GMC truck with the Wagner Brake Drum Brake Shoe Z280R. This organic drum brake shoe drops in as a direct-fit replacement for a long list of 1964–1975 GM light trucks and vans, including the 1964-1974 Chevrolet C10 Pickup, 1969-1974 Chevrolet Blazer, 1967-1975 Chevrolet C10 Suburban, 1967-1974 GMC C15/C1500 Pickup and 1970-1975 GMC Jimmy (engine: All). It presses its friction lining against the inside of the brake drum to slow the wheel, and is cataloged for both front and rear drum-brake positions depending on the application.
- OE-matched friction: uses friction material matched to the original equipment for consistent braking.
- Precision-ground lining: ground to maximize friction-to-drum contact.
- Organic lining, riveted: organic friction material riveted to the shoe; primary lining approximately 0.220 in thick.
- Sized to the drum: 11.000 in brake drum diameter and 2.000 in shoe width (FMSI S280R).
- Hardware: Mounting hardware is not included and parking brake levers are not included; consult the vehicle service information for the correct hardware and whether any may be reused.
If worn, glazed, or contaminated shoes are the cause of poor braking, grabbing, or noise, this replaces them. Best practice is to service both wheels on an axle with matched shoes for even, balanced braking. Country of origin: China.
