Keep your rear drum brakes quiet, smooth, and working like they should with the Dynamic Friction Company Drum Brake Hardware Kit (P/N 370-54030, also written 37054030). This DFC kit is a direct-fit replacement for the rear axle of the 2000-2011 Ford Focus — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment details — supplying the fresh springs, retainers, and hold-down hardware that keep the brake shoes properly positioned and returning after each stop.
Axle-set coverage: Sold as an axle kit rather than per side, so it services both rear wheels in one box.
Built for longevity: Manufactured using premium materials for long service life and consistent performance.
Reduces drag: Helps the shoes retract fully to minimize brake drag, which supports normal fuel efficiency.
Quieter, smoother braking: Designed to reduce noise and vibration while helping prevent premature wear for longer brake life.
Over time, weak or fatigued springs and worn retainers let drum shoes drag, rattle, or return unevenly. Refreshing this hardware whenever you replace rear shoes helps restore correct shoe operation. If tired hardware is the cause of your rear-brake noise or drag, this kit replaces it.
What position is this hardware kit for?
It fits the rear drum brakes. The kit is cataloged for the rear axle of the listed applications.
Does this kit cover one wheel or both?
It is sold as an axle kit, not per side, so it supplies the hardware for both rear wheels on the axle in a single kit.
Will this fit my Ford Focus?
It is a direct-fit replacement for the rear axle of the 2000-2011 Ford Focus. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the fit for your exact vehicle.
What does a drum brake hardware kit include and do?
It provides return springs, hold-down springs, and retainers that keep the brake shoes positioned and returning correctly after each stop, helping reduce noise, vibration, and drag.
When should I replace this hardware?
Replacing the springs and retainers is recommended whenever you install new rear brake shoes, or if worn hardware is causing shoe drag, rattling, or uneven return.
