Keep your rear drum brakes quiet, properly adjusted, and retracting cleanly with the Dynamic Friction Company Drum Brake Hardware Kit 370-48004 (also written 37048004). This rear-axle hardware kit drops in as a direct-fit replacement across a long list of GM, Dodge, and Workhorse trucks and vans, including the 1994-1999 Dodge Ram 2500 and Ram 3500, 1989-2000 Chevrolet C2500 and K2500, 1988-2000 Chevrolet C3500 and K3500, and 1996-2002 Chevrolet Express 2500 and 3500 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of 74 applications.
Over time the return springs, hold-down clips, and adjusting hardware fatigue, which can let the shoes drag, rattle, or self-adjust poorly. Fitting fresh hardware whenever you service the drum shoes helps the rear brakes operate as designed.
Does this kit cover both rear wheels?
Yes. It is sold as an axle kit, not per side, so it supplies the hardware for both rear wheels on the axle rather than a single side.
Is this for the front or rear brakes?
This is a rear drum brake hardware kit, cataloged for the rear axle position on the listed applications.
Should I replace the hardware when I do the drum shoes?
It is good practice. Springs and clips fatigue with heat and age, so fitting fresh hardware alongside new shoes helps the brakes adjust and retract as intended.
What does a drum brake hardware kit include?
These kits typically supply the return springs, hold-down clips, and adjusting hardware that retain and locate the brake shoes. See the product images and Buyer's Guide for the exact contents.
How do I confirm this fits my vehicle?
Check the Buyer's Guide tab, which lists all 74 year, make, and model applications for MPN 370-48004 so you can match it to your truck or van.
