• Smoother Pedal Feel: Correct hardware tension produces more consistent, linear pedal travel

Centric Parts is a leading manufacturer and supplier of aftermarket brake components for passenger vehicles, medium-duty trucks, and fleet vehicles. Replacing worn or damaged drum brake hardware at every brake service interval is essential — degraded springs and clips compromise shoe retraction, cause noise, and accelerate wear on the drum and lining. The Centric 118.51004 kit makes it easy to complete a thorough, professional-quality brake job in one pass.
