Help control rear-wheel vibration and pedal pulsation with the Dynamic Friction Company True Balanced Brake Drum, MPN 365-39005. It drops in as a direct-fit rear brake drum for the 2004-2009 Chrysler PT Cruiser, machined to tight tolerances so it installs new out of the box with no modifications required.
The drum houses the rear brake shoes; its friction surface is what the shoes press against to slow the vehicle. Signs the original may need replacing include scoring, deep grooves, an out-of-round surface, or rear brake vibration and pedal pulsation. If a worn or out-of-round rear drum is the cause of those symptoms, this replaces it. Drums are best replaced as a matched pair on the same axle for even, balanced braking; this listing is for one drum, so order two for a complete rear set.
