Detailed Fitment and Function
Brake hardware plays a direct role in how drum brakes adjust and operate, and the Carlson H1540 helps restore the adjusting mechanism on the rear left side. It is listed for 1975-1994 Dodge B300, 1981-1994 Dodge B350, 1975-1980 Dodge D200, 1981-1983 Dodge D250, 1984-1985 Dodge D250, 1975-1980 Dodge D300, 1981-1985 Dodge D350, 1975-1980 Dodge W200, 1981-1985 Dodge W250, 1975-1980 Dodge W300, 1981-1985 Dodge W350, and 1981 Dodge W350 rear left drum brake applications. This part number, H1540, is intended for vehicles where the drum brake adjusting screw assembly matches the listed configuration and notes.
This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
What It Helps Address
- Uneven or inconsistent rear drum brake adjustment
- Worn or damaged brake adjuster hardware
- Brake shoe clearance that is out of specification
- Reduced braking consistency from aging drum brake components
- Service needs during rear drum brake hardware replacement
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the rear left position, drum brake size, and listed notes before installation. Compare the existing adjuster assembly to the Carlson H1540 and confirm the vehicle’s brake hardware configuration on Dodge B300, B350, D200, D250, D300, D350, W200, W250, W300, or W350 models. Proper drum brake adjustment after installation is important for correct shoe-to-drum clearance and even brake operation.
