Product Line Details

The Bendix Premium Brake Shoes line focuses on copper-free brake friction with OE-style construction and application-specific fitment. Part number 770 is part of that lineup and is aimed at rear parking brake service where consistent engagement, pedal feel, and reliable shoe-to-drum contact matter.

Detailed Description

Bendix Friction 770 is a rear parking brake shoe designed for select Chevrolet, Buick, Pontiac, Cadillac, Saturn, and Oldsmobile vehicles. It is a strong match for rear brake service on models such as the Chevrolet Impala, Pontiac Grand Prix, and Buick Regal, with fitment that also includes vehicles using 6.89" x 0.99" rear brakes in specific applications. The copper-free friction material, OE match levers, and premium adhesive construction support stable operation in everyday braking and parking brake use.

What It Helps Address

• Parking brake shoes that are worn, glazed, or unevenly contacting the drum
• Reduced parking brake holding performance
• Noise or vibration from deteriorated rear shoe friction material
• Loss of consistent rear brake engagement on drum-style parking brake systems
• Service needs on rear brake systems for Chevrolet Impala, Pontiac Grand Prix, and Buick Regal models

Inspect the drum surface, parking brake hardware, and adjuster components during service, and replace worn related parts as needed for proper shoe contact and adjustment.
