Key Features & Benefits

This kit basically gives you everything you need to refresh your brake drum system. It includes new wheel cylinders, brake shoes, springs, and often a few other small bits like adjusters and clips. It’s designed for a specific size drum – that 325x140 measurement tells you the diameter and width of the drum it’s made for, so it’s important to get the right size. It’s a complete package to replace the wearable parts inside the drum brake assembly. Your brake drum is, simply put, where the stopping power happens at the wheel. When you hit the brake pedal, the master cylinder sends fluid to the wheel cylinders, and those push the brake shoes outwards against the inside of the drum. That friction slows the wheel down. This kit provides the parts that create that friction and allow the system to work. It's all contained within the drum assembly – that’s why it’s called a ‘drum’ brake.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Well, brake shoes wear down over time, the springs lose their tension, and wheel cylinders can start to leak. If any of that happens, your braking becomes less effective. You’ll notice if you start getting a soft pedal, longer stopping distances, or even pulling to one side when you brake. This kit restores everything to how it should be, giving you reliable stopping power. Ignoring worn brake components is never a good idea, obviously. You can find this kit, and a lot of other brake parts, over at Fixparts Online if you’re looking. It’s really about keeping you safe out there, and this kit is a key part of that.
