Detailed Description

Carlson H2318 is a rear drum brake hardware kit engineered for service work on older Ford applications that use 12 x 2.5-inch drum brakes and related drum brake configurations. The kit groups together the small but critical parts that keep drum brake shoes positioned correctly and operating consistently, including springs, clips, pins, seals, dust boots, and adjuster assemblies where applicable. For technicians servicing Ford E-250 Econoline, Ford F-250, and related models, this kit helps replace worn hardware during a brake job without piecing together individual components. The PRO KIT line is aimed at complete drum brake hardware service, making H2318 a practical choice when restoring brake function on compatible rear drum systems. This part number is H2318.

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

What It Helps Solve

• Loose or weak drum brake shoe return action.
• Brake shoe rattle caused by worn retaining hardware.
• Uneven shoe positioning from fatigued springs or clips.
• Brake service issues tied to missing or deteriorated adjuster components.
• Noise and inconsistency in rear drum brake operation.

Installation Notes

Verify drum size, brake configuration, and vehicle year before installation. This kit is for rear drum brake applications listed in the fitment data and should be matched to the existing brake setup on Ford E-Series, F-Series, and P-Series vehicles. Inspect drums, shoes, and related wear parts during service so the new hardware is installed into a clean, serviceable brake assembly. Part number H2318 should be confirmed against the vehicle’s rear drum brake specification before ordering.

Quality Assurance

Carlson PRO KIT brake hardware is organized for drum brake service applications and supports restoration of the brake system’s retaining and return hardware. H2318 is built around the components commonly replaced during a rear drum brake overhaul on compatible Ford applications.
