Restore a firm, quiet stop from your rear drums with the Dynamic Friction Company Drum Brake Shoe Set 1901-0270-00. This rear semi-metallic shoe set installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1964-1966 Volkswagen Beetle and 1965-1972 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full engine-level fitment. When your shoes are worn thin, glazed, or contaminated and braking feels weak or noisy, a fresh set is what puts new friction material back against the drum.
Each set is field and lab tested for reliable, long-lasting performance. Drum brake shoes wear as a pair, so replace both sides together for even, balanced braking.
Which vehicles does this shoe set fit?
It is a direct-fit replacement for the 1964-1966 Volkswagen Beetle and 1965-1972 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the exact fit for your vehicle.
Is this a front or rear brake shoe set?
This set is cataloged for the rear drum brakes on the listed applications.
What friction material is used?
The shoes use a semi-metallic friction lining, bonded or riveted to the carbon steel shoe per OE specifications.
Does the set include attachment hardware?
Attachment hardware such as levers and pins is included where applicable, so it may not be supplied for every vehicle. Consult the vehicle service information for the hardware your application requires.
Should I replace both sides at once?
Yes. Drum brake shoes wear together, so replacing both rear sides as a matched set helps maintain even, balanced braking.
