What components are typically included in a rear drum brake hardware kit?

A rear drum brake hardware kit usually contains all the small parts needed to install brake shoes. This includes items like return springs, hold-down clips, and any other small fasteners that keep the shoes properly positioned and functioning against the brake drum.

Why is it important to replace brake hardware when replacing brake shoes?

Brake hardware, like springs and clips, can become worn or weakened over time. Replacing them along with your brake shoes ensures that the new shoes are held correctly, operate smoothly, and don't drag. This leads to better braking performance, longer life for the new shoes, and can help reduce noise and vibration.

Does this kit include everything needed for both rear wheels?

Yes, this DFC brake hardware kit is sold as an axle kit. This means it contains all the necessary components for both the left and right rear drum brake assemblies on your vehicle.
