Refresh the friction in your rear drum brakes with the Wagner Brake Drum Brake Shoe (MPN Z353R), a rear-position drum brake shoe that installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1964-1969 Ford Falcon [All], 1964-1969 Ford Mustang [All], 1964-1965 Mercury Caliente [All], 1970-1972 Ford Maverick [All], 1971-1972 Mercury Comet [All] and 1971 Mercury Cyclone [All].
- OE-matched friction: uses an organic friction compound matched to the original equipment and precision-ground to maximize friction-to-drum contact.
- Riveted lining: the friction material is riveted to the shoe.
- Sized to the drum: built for a 9.000 in drum with a 1.500 in shoe width; the primary lining measures 0.220 in and the secondary lining 0.250 in thick.
- Mounting hardware: not included — consult the vehicle service information for the correct hardware and whether it may be reused.
Mounted at the rear drum, the shoe presses its lining against the inside of the drum to create the friction that slows the wheel. Signs the rear shoes may need attention include reduced rear braking, a low or soft pedal, or squealing or scraping from the rear; diagnose the cause before replacing, since these symptoms can have other sources. Replace drum shoes as a complete matched set for even, balanced braking; sold individually, this listing is for one shoe and the listed applications call for one. FMSI S353R. Country of origin: China.
