Keep the rear parking/drum brake operating smoothly with the Dynamic Friction Parking Brake Hardware Kit / Drum Brake Hardware Kit 370-13004. This rear-axle hardware kit supplies the springs, clips and small components that hold the shoes in place and return them after each application, and it drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1998-2008 Subaru Forester, 1990-2009 Subaru Legacy, 2000-2009 Subaru Outback, 2005-2006 Saab 9-2X, 2003-2006 Subaru Baja, and the 1993-1996 and 1998-2007 Subaru Impreza. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level applications.
Fresh hardware is recommended whenever you replace the rear brake shoes, since fatigued springs and clips can let shoes drag, rattle, or return unevenly. If worn parking/drum brake hardware is the cause of noise or poor shoe return, this kit replaces those components. Always follow the vehicle service information for the correct procedure.
What does this kit include?
It supplies the small hardware — springs, clips and retainers — that hold the rear brake shoes in place and return them after each application. It is sold as an axle kit covering both rear wheels.
Is this a per-wheel or per-axle kit?
It is sold as an axle kit covering both rear wheels, not per side, so one kit services the rear axle.
Which vehicles does the 370-13004 fit?
It fits the 1998-2008 Subaru Forester, 1990-2009 Legacy, 2000-2009 Outback, 2005-2006 Saab 9-2X, 2003-2006 Baja, and the 1993-1996 and 1998-2007 Impreza. See the Buyer's Guide tab for details.
When should I replace the brake hardware?
Replacing the hardware is recommended whenever you install new rear brake shoes. Fatigued springs and clips can let shoes drag, rattle, or return unevenly.
Will this fix my brake noise?
If worn or fatigued rear brake hardware is the cause of noise or vibration, this kit replaces those components. Diagnose the cause first, since noise can have other sources.
