Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this set include both sides of the axle?

Yes, the brake shoe set typically includes all shoes required for the rear axle assembly.

What does ECE R90 certification mean?

It is a European standard that ensures replacement brake parts perform as well as the original parts supplied by the car manufacturer.

How do I know if this fits my car?

Use your vehicle's VIN or the specific model/year information to cross-reference with the MPN 171056 through an official parts catalog.

Do I need to replace the drums when I replace the shoes?

It is recommended to inspect the drums for scoring or wear; if they are within tolerance, they can be resurfaced or reused, but replacement is advised if they are excessively worn.

Are these shoes pre-bedded?

No, they are not pre-bedded. Follow a gentle breaking-in procedure by avoiding heavy braking for the first 100-200 miles.

Troubleshooting

Brake pedal feels spongy after installation

The system likely requires a professional brake bleed to remove trapped air from the hydraulic lines.

Squealing noise during braking

Check that the return springs are correctly seated and ensure the drum surface is free of glazing or contaminants.

Uneven braking pull to one side

Verify that the brake adjuster mechanism is functioning correctly and that both sides have been adjusted to the same clearance.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Meets or exceeds original equipment quality standards
  • ECE R90 certification guarantees safety and performance
  • Precise dimensions ensure straightforward installation
  • High-grade friction material for long-lasting use

Cons

  • Requires specific vehicle fitment verification
  • Not suitable for disc brake systems
  • Installation requires specialized drum brake tools

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting installation, always consult your vehicle's service manual to confirm the 254 mm diameter requirement. Safety is paramount; use a vehicle lift or jack stands to support the car securely. When installing, ensure that all contact points on the backplate are cleaned of debris and lightly lubricated with high-temperature brake grease. After installation, perform a series of gentle stops to bed-in the friction material. Regularly inspect the shoes during routine tire rotations to check for uneven wear or glazing, and keep the drum assembly free from excessive brake dust buildup to extend component lifespan.
