What does a drum brake adjuster kit do?

A drum brake adjuster kit keeps your brake shoes properly positioned as they wear down. This ensures consistent braking force and helps prevent premature wear on your brake components and drums.

Why is minimizing brake drag important?

Minimizing brake drag means your brake shoes aren't lightly touching the drum when you're not actively braking. This can lead to improved fuel efficiency because the engine doesn't have to work as hard to overcome constant resistance.

Does this kit include parts for both sides of the front axle?

No, this kit is sold as an axle kit, meaning it includes all the necessary parts for one side of the front axle (either left or right). You will need to purchase a second kit if you intend to replace the adjusters on both sides.
