Carlson H402 Drum Brake Adjusting Spring Kit - Rear

Carlson H402 Drum Brake Adjusting Spring Kit

The Carlson H402 Drum Brake Adjusting Spring Kit is a service part for restoring proper drum brake adjuster function. When the adjusting springs lose tension or wear, brake hardware can stop working as intended and affect overall brake performance.

Key Features

• Drum brake adjusting spring kit for service and repair work
• Supports proper interaction between drum brake components
• Built for brake system maintenance where worn springs need replacement
• Part number H402 for easy identification

Product Details

Brakes work as a system, and the adjusting springs are part of that system’s mechanical operation. Replacing worn springs helps maintain consistent adjuster action in drum brake assemblies. Carlson H402 is a practical choice for technicians and DIY brake service on vehicles that use drum brake hardware, including Chevrolet and Ford applications where this part number is specified.

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

Common Issues It Can Help Address

• Weak or inconsistent drum brake adjuster movement
• Brake hardware wear that affects self-adjusting operation
• Noisy or loose brake components inside the drum assembly
• Reduced brake system consistency after hardware service

Installation Notes

Inspect the full drum brake assembly before installation and replace any worn or damaged related hardware at the same time. Confirm the spring orientation and adjuster engagement match the original brake layout for the vehicle. Verify fitment by year, make, and model before ordering; this H402 listing is used for specific drum brake applications rather than universal coverage.

Quality Assurance

Carlson brake service parts are built for repair work where proper component interaction matters. The H402 part number helps ensure the correct adjusting spring kit is selected for the intended drum brake application.
