It is cataloged for front and rear drum-brake positions, depending on the application.
- True balanced: Precision cut and mill balanced for proper balance, which helps prevent the vibration and pedal pulsation an out-of-balance drum can cause.
- Corrosion protection: A black high-temperature coating protects against corrosion.
- OE form, fit and function: Designed to match OEM brake drums in form, fit and function, and machined to tight tolerances for a proper direct fit on the listed applications.
- Castings of superior metallurgy: Made from castings of superior metallurgy for drivability, durability and reliability, then quality tested for performance.
Each drum arrives new in the box and ready to install, with no modifications required. The drum provides the braking surface that the shoes press against. Pedal pulsation, grinding noises, or a drum that is scored, cracked or worn may mean it needs replacing, so diagnose the brake system first. Replacing the drums on both sides of the axle together is recommended for even, balanced braking.
