FAQs

Does this set include both sides of the rear axle?

Yes, the brake shoes set is designed to service the rear axle configuration for the specified vehicle applications.

Can I install these shoes myself?

While it is possible for those with mechanical experience, brake systems are critical safety components. If you are not confident in your skills, professional installation is strongly recommended.

How do I know if this part fits my car?

Verify that your vehicle requires a 254 mm drum diameter and a 57 mm shoe width, and cross-reference the part number 0986487773 with your vehicle's service manual or parts catalog.

Should I resurface my drums when replacing the shoes?

It is standard industry practice to inspect your brake drums for wear or scoring. If they are worn, they should be either resurfaced or replaced to ensure a proper mating surface for the new shoes.

What is the primary benefit of choosing Bosch brake shoes?

Bosch provides components that are rigorously tested for material durability and stopping consistency, ensuring the part meets or exceeds original equipment performance.

Troubleshooting

Brakes feel 'spongy' after installation

Ensure the braking system has been properly bled of any air bubbles in the hydraulic lines.

Squealing noise during braking

Verify that the brake shoes are correctly centered and that the drum surface is free of glazing or deep grooves.

Shoes do not fit inside the drum

Check that the drum diameter is exactly 254 mm and that the automatic adjuster is fully retracted before attempting installation.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Bosch quality assurance for safety-critical components
  • Pre-fitted with high-performance linings
  • Matches OEM technical specifications for drum diameter
  • Ensures consistent and predictable stopping power

Cons

  • Compatibility is highly specific to drum diameter and width
  • Requires professional mechanical knowledge for installation
  • Not compatible with disc-brake equipped vehicles

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before beginning installation, confirm your vehicle's rear axle configuration matches the 254 mm inner drum diameter requirement. Proper setup involves cleaning the brake backing plate and applying a thin layer of high-temperature brake grease to the contact points where the shoes meet the backing plate. Always inspect the brake hardware, including springs and clips, for signs of rust or fatigue. If hardware appears compromised, it should be replaced alongside the brake shoes. After installation, perform a series of low-speed stops to properly seat the new linings against the drum surface.
