Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm drum diameter, shoe width, and FMSI match before installation. Inspect the brake drum for scoring, heat spots, or out-of-round wear, since drum condition affects shoe contact and parking brake performance. Verify rear fitment by vehicle year and model: Fits 1998-2007 Lexus LX470, Rear; Fits 1996-1997 Lexus LX450, Rear; Fits 1991-2007 Toyota Land Cruiser, Rear. The part number Z844 should be matched to the vehicle’s rear parking brake specification before service.
