Installation Notes and Tips

Verify drum diameter and backing plate condition before installation. This application uses a 200 mm rear drum brake shoe profile, so the drum surface should be inspected for wear, scoring, or out-of-round conditions before new shoes are installed. Mounting hardware is not included. Because parking brake levers are included, confirm lever orientation and cable connection points during assembly. For best results, replace or service related drum brake components as needed and adjust the rear brakes according to factory procedure after installation.
