Product Details

The Wagner Brake Z952 is a rear parking brake shoe engineered for drum-style parking brake systems. Its 1640 lining and S952 steel profile are matched to the listed drum dimensions, helping maintain proper shoe-to-drum contact in vehicles that rely on a mechanical parking brake for secure holding. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., BX952) for the same application. For buyers searching for a rear parking brake shoe for Ford E-350 Super Duty, Nissan NV3500, or Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD, the Z952 provides a fitment-specific replacement option with OE-style friction characteristics.

What This Part Helps Address

• Parking brake that does not hold the vehicle securely
• Uneven or inconsistent rear drum contact
• Wear-related loss of parking brake friction material
• Noise or reduced effectiveness from aged parking brake shoes
• Replacement needs on rear drum parking brake service for Ford, Nissan, Chevrolet, and GMC applications

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the rear drum diameter and shoe width before installation, and compare the existing shoe profile to FMSI 1640-S952. Inspect the drum surface for scoring, heat spots, or taper wear before installing new shoes. Proper adjustment after installation is important for parking brake engagement and release. Verify vehicle-specific rear fitment for the exact year and model, including Ford E-350 Super Duty, Nissan NV1500, and GMC Sierra 3500 HD applications.

Quality Assurance

Wagner Brake uses OE-matched friction materials and precision-ground components to support consistent brake performance and reliable drum contact. The Z952 is identified by part number Z952 and FMSI 1640-S952 for accurate cataloging and service matching.
