This shoe ships without mounting hardware and without parking brake levers, so consult the vehicle service information for the correct hardware and whether it may be reused. Signs the shoes may need replacing include reduced braking, a low or spongy pedal, or squealing or scraping from the rear; if worn rear drum shoes are the cause, replacing them addresses it. Diagnose the cause before replacing. For even, balanced braking, replacing both sides on the axle as a matched set is recommended; the listed applications use one per application, and this listing reflects that quantity. Country of origin: China.
