- OE-matched friction material: friction formulated to match the original equipment for consistent braking performance.
- Precision-ground lining: the material is ground to maximize friction-to-drum contact.
- Organic, bonded lining: an organic friction material bonded to the shoe.
- Hardware not included: mounting hardware and parking brake levers are not included with this shoe.
Key specs: 7.870 in drum diameter, 1.340 in shoe width, and 0.165 in primary friction-material thickness (FMSI 1507-S739). Sold individually; for even, balanced braking, it's best to replace the shoes on both sides of the axle together as a matched set. Country of origin: China.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which vehicles does the Wagner Z739 drum brake shoe fit?
It's a direct-fit rear drum brake shoe for the 1999-2003 Mazda Protege [All] and the 2002-2003 Mazda Protege5 [All]. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your vehicle.
Is mounting hardware or a parking brake lever included?
No. This shoe ships without mounting hardware and without parking brake levers. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct hardware and whether any original parts may be reused.
What friction material does the Z739 use?
It uses an organic friction material that is bonded to the shoe and precision-ground to maximize friction-to-drum contact for consistent braking.
Do I need to replace both sides?
This listing is for one shoe (quantity per application is 1). For even, balanced braking, it's best to replace the shoes on both sides of the axle together as a matched set.
What are signs the rear brake shoes may need replacing?
Signs may include reduced braking, squealing or scraping from the rear, or a grabbing feel. Diagnose the cause before replacing, since other parts can produce these symptoms.
