Wagner Brake Z449R Drum Brake Shoe - Rear
Wagner Z449R Rear Drum Brake Shoe
The Wagner Z449R is a rear drum brake shoe built for vehicles using 11 x 2 inch drum brakes. It uses organic friction material with a riveted attachment and precision-ground surfaces to improve friction-to-drum contact for consistent braking response.
Compatible with rear brake applications on Chevrolet G10, P30, C10, C10 Suburban, C15, C35, K10, R10, R10 Suburban, and GMC G1500, C1500, G15, R1500, R1500 Suburban models listed below.

- 2.000 inch brake shoe width
- Organic friction material for steady, predictable braking

Wagner Brake Shoe Construction
Wagner brake shoes use OE-matched friction materials and precision-ground surfaces to help maximize contact between the shoe and drum. The Wagner line focuses on direct-fit drum brake service parts for older light-duty trucks and vans, making the Z449R a practical choice for rear drum brake maintenance on Chevrolet and GMC applications with 11 x 2 inch brakes. If you are replacing worn rear shoes on a Chevrolet G10 or GMC G1500, the Z449R provides the correct shoe dimensions and friction format for the listed fitments. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 372375, BX449) for the same application.
What It Helps Fix
- Squealing or uneven rear drum brake operation
- Reduced braking performance from worn friction material
- Poor drum-to-shoe contact caused by aged or glazed shoes
- Brake pull or inconsistent rear braking feel on drum-equipped vehicles
- Service issues on rear drum brake systems using 11 x 2 inch shoes
Installation Notes
Verify drum diameter, shoe width, and FMSI number before installation. This shoe is for rear drum brake applications only and does not include mounting hardware or parking brake levers. Inspect the brake drum, wheel cylinders, return springs, and adjuster components during service, and replace any worn parts before final assembly. Confirm fitment against the vehicle listing for your Chevrolet or GMC model and brake configuration.
Quality Assurance
Wagner brake shoes are built with OE-matched friction materials and precision-ground contact surfaces to support consistent brake service on the listed applications. The Z449R is identified by FMSI S449R for application matching and parts lookup.
