Autospecialty Brake Shoe Line
The PowerStop Autospecialty brake shoe line focuses on OE-style replacement parts with attention to fit, finish, and everyday braking consistency. For applications that use rear drum brakes, this line is aimed at restoring predictable pedal feel and parking brake function without unnecessary complexity.
Detailed Product Description
PowerStop B189 drum brake shoes are engineered for direct replacement in drum brake systems where a semi-metallic shoe is specified. The post-cured friction material helps reduce initial bedding time, while the cam-ground profile supports even contact against the drum surface. Chamfered edges are used to help minimize brake noise and chatter during operation. The shoes are built from new steel and finished with a rust-resistant coating for added durability in service.
This part cross-references Centric Parts 111.01890 for the same application. Search terms such as rear drum brake shoe replacement, semi-metallic brake shoes for drum brakes, and PowerStop B189 brake shoe replacement are commonly used by shoppers comparing OE-style parts for drum brake service.
What This Part Helps Address
- Reduced rear braking performance from worn drum shoes
- Brake noise or chatter from uneven shoe contact
- Long break-in time after brake service

Installation Notes and Tips
Inspect the drum surface, wheel cylinders, return springs, and hardware condition before installation. Clean the backing plate contact points and verify the drum is within service limits so the new shoes can seat evenly. Because mounting hardware is not included, reuse or replace related service parts as needed during brake work.
