Signs Your Rear Brake Shoe Fitting Kit Needs Replacing
Signs that a fitting kit is needed include a brake that drags or binds, a grinding noise from the drum and shoes that sit at an angle when the drum is removed. Rusted or stretched springs should not be reused when fitting new shoes. Catching these signs early usually means a simpler and cheaper repair. Electric cars are heavy and very quiet, so worn parts are often noticed sooner than on a petrol car.

Fitting Advice
Fit the kit at the same time as new rear shoes, clean the backing plates first, adjust the shoes and handbrake afterwards, and test the handbrake before driving.
