Dynamic Friction Company Drum Brake Adjuster P/N:372-40009
Keep your rear drum brakes self-adjusting correctly with the Dynamic Friction Company Drum Brake Adjuster 372-48002. This rear axle kit replaces the star-wheel adjuster mechanism that takes up shoe-to-drum clearance as the linings wear, helping the shoes stay properly positioned for consistent pedal travel. It fits the rear (left and right) of the 1988-1999 Chevrolet C1500, 1988-1991 Chevrolet K1500, 1992-1997 Chevrolet Blazer, 1995-2000 Chevrolet Tahoe, 1988-1999 GMC C1500 and 1992-2000 GMC Yukon — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment.
Sold as an axle kit (not per side), so this listing covers both rear wheels. If a seized, corroded, or worn adjuster is keeping your rear shoes from taking up clearance, replacing it with 372-48002 helps restore proper self-adjustment. Always diagnose the cause of poor brake performance before servicing, and refer to the vehicle service information for the correct procedure.
