Detailed Description

Brake hardware works as part of a system, and the self-adjuster cable plays a key role in keeping rear drum brakes operating correctly as the shoes wear. Carlson H2117-2 is a drum brake self-adjuster cable for rear drum brake assemblies used across multiple Ford and Mazda platforms, including 9" x 1.75" drum brake setups and related 9-inch drum brake configurations. This part number, H2117-2, is listed for applications such as Ford Ranger, Ford Mustang, Ford Bronco II, Ford Aerostar, Ford Thunderbird, Ford Pinto, and Mazda B2300/B3000/B4000 rear drum brake service.

This part cross-references common brake hardware applications used in OE-style drum brake repair for the same vehicle families.

What It Helps Fix

  • Rear drum brakes that do not self-adjust properly
  • Uneven brake shoe wear caused by worn hardware
  • Reduced parking brake and rear brake consistency
  • Noisy or loose drum brake hardware during operation
  • Brake service issues on Ford Ranger and Ford Mustang rear drum brake systems

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify drum size, brake width, and rear brake configuration before ordering. Fitment includes rear applications for 1987-1994 Ford Ranger, 1987-1993 Ford Mustang, 1987-1990 Ford Bronco II, 1986-1992 Ford Aerostar, 1983-1988 Ford Thunderbird, 1974-1979 Ford Pinto, and listed Mazda rear drum brake models. Inspect related brake hardware, adjuster components, and shoe condition during service so the self-adjuster system can operate correctly after installation.
