Restore dependable drum brake performance with DFC Part Number 1901-0228-00 Premium Service Shoes. Designed for select front and rear applications on a broad range of 1948-1981 vehicles from AM General, Chevrolet, Edsel, Ford, GMC, Hudson, Jeep, Mercury, Oldsmobile, and Pontiac, these brake shoes are engineered to meet application-specific fitment requirements. Compatibility includes vehicles such as the Ford F1, Chevrolet Truck, GMC 100, Chevrolet Fleetline, and many additional cars, trucks, vans, and utility vehicles. Always verify the complete vehicle application before installation, especially where model, axle, or brake-system variations apply.
DFC manufactures these shoes from 100% new carbon steel and protects the metal with high-temperature, anti-rust corrosion-resistant black paint. The friction material is semi-metallic and is bonded or riveted according to original equipment specifications. DFC uses specialized glue lining and treatment to promote secure friction-material-to-steel bonding, helping support consistent operation and long service life under normal driving conditions.
Each shoe is field- and laboratory-tested for reliability and durability, then precision arc-ground to help provide an accurate shoe-to-drum fit. This design supports smoother contact, proper braking response, and reduced installation adjustments when paired with compatible drums and hardware. The DFC 1901-0228-00 is a practical replacement choice for maintaining the braking system on classic and vintage applications, including select Bel Air, Biscayne, Bonneville, C10, CJ5, CJ7, Corvette, El Camino, F-Series, Galaxie, Impala, Malibu, Thunderbird, Wagoneer, and other listed models. Professional installation is recommended, and all related brake components should be inspected before service.
