DFC Premium Carbon Steel Rear Brake Shoes | 4WD (1984-95 4Runner)

DFC Premium Carbon Steel Rear Brake Shoes

For 1984–1995 Toyota 4Runner 4WD Rear Drum Brake Applications

Overview

The DFC Premium Carbon Steel Rear Brake Shoes are OE-style replacement shoes for the rear drum brake system used on 1984–1995 Toyota 4Runner 4WD models.

Each set combines a semi-metallic friction compound with new carbon-steel shoe construction, precision arc grinding, and a high-temperature anti-rust coating to restore consistent rear braking performance during routine drum brake service.

Toyota used multiple rear brake shoe configurations across this year range, so the correct set is selected by vehicle year.

Key Features

• OE-style rear brake shoe replacement
• 100% new carbon-steel shoe construction
• Semi-metallic friction material
• Precision arc-ground friction surface for proper shoe-to-drum contact
• Bonded or riveted lining construction based on the original brake design
• High-temperature anti-rust coating
• Vehicle-specific direct-fit design

Precision Arc-Ground Construction

Each brake shoe is precision arc-ground to closely match the inside curvature of the brake drum. Proper shoe-to-drum contact helps promote consistent braking force, predictable pedal response, and even friction-material wear after installation and bedding.
