Detailed Product Description

Bendix Friction 514 rear drum brake shoes are built for vehicles using rear drum brake systems, including applications such as Chevrolet S10 rear brake shoe replacement, GMC Sonoma rear drum brake service, and Chevrolet Astro rear drum brake maintenance. The friction material is formulated to deliver consistent pedal response while meeting copper-free requirements, and the OE match levers help maintain the original brake geometry and function.

This part number is also a strong match for classic and late-model rear drum applications across the 1978-2004 range, including Chevrolet Blazer, GMC Jimmy, Pontiac Firebird, Oldsmobile Bravada, and Buick Regal. If you are searching for Bendix 514 rear brake shoes for a specific make and model, verify drum size and brake configuration before ordering.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Rear brake shoe wear that reduces stopping performance
• Brake noise caused by worn or uneven drum shoe friction material
• Reduced braking consistency from aged rear drum components
• Brake pull or imbalance related to deteriorated rear shoes
• Service needs on copper-free brake systems

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm rear drum size and brake configuration before installation. Several listed applications require 9.5" x 2.06" brakes or 9-1/2" brake dimensions, so match the vehicle’s existing drum setup to the catalog notes. Inspect drums, wheel cylinders, springs, and adjusters during service, and replace worn related components as needed for proper brake operation.
