Dynamic Friction Company Drum Brake Hardware Kit P/N:370-54061
Keep your rear drum brakes tight, quiet, and fully retracted with the Dynamic Friction Company Drum Brake Hardware Kit (MPN 370-54012). This rear-axle hardware kit is a direct-fit replacement for a wide range of classic Ford and Mercury models, including the 1962-1968 Ford Fairlane, 1964-1971 Ford Mustang, 1960-1968 Ford Falcon, 1962-1965 Ford Ranchero, 1967-1969 Mercury Cougar, and 1963-1965 Mercury Comet — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of covered applications.
Old, fatigued springs and retainers let brake shoes chatter, hang up, or return unevenly, so refreshing this hardware during a shoe or drum service helps restore correct spring tension and shoe positioning. This kit is sold as an axle set — not per side — so it covers both rear wheels. It is best practice to service the hardware on both sides together for balanced braking.
What position does this hardware kit fit?
It is a rear drum brake hardware kit. It supplies the springs, clips, and retainers for the rear drum brakes on the listed applications.
Is this sold per wheel or per axle?
It is sold as an axle kit, not per side, so a single kit covers both rear wheels. There is no need to order two for a complete rear-axle job.
When should I replace the drum brake hardware?
Refresh it whenever you service the brake shoes or drums, or if you notice noise, dragging, or shoes that return unevenly due to worn or fatigued springs.
Does this kit include brake shoes or drums?
No. This is a hardware kit containing the springs, clips, and retainers only. Brake shoes and drums are sold separately.
Will this fit my vehicle?
It fits many classic Ford and Mercury models such as the Fairlane, Mustang, Falcon, Ranchero, Comet, and Cougar. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your exact year, make, and model.
