Chrysler Sebring Brake Drum Kit in US

A brake drum kit for the Chrysler Sebring addresses the most common brake service shortcut: replacing shoes on a worn Sebring drum, or fitting new drums with glazed, worn shoes. Either combination prevents correct break-in on the Chrysler Sebring. New shoes have a specific arc radius that must contact a fresh drum surface across the full lining width on your Sebring. A GeoBrakes drum kit eliminates that incompatibility by delivering matched drums and shoes confirmed for your Chrysler Sebring in a single order.

What Is Included in the Chrysler Sebring Brake Drum Kit

The kit for your Chrysler Sebring includes OEM-spec cast-iron brake drums at the correct inner diameter for the Sebring for both left and right rear wheels, drum brake shoes with OEM-grade friction lining matched to the Chrysler Sebring drum bore and wheel cylinder specification, a brake hardware kit with return springs, hold-down hardware, and self-adjusters specific to the Sebring, and drum retaining hardware where required by the Chrysler Sebring application.

Why American Conditions Make a Full Kit the Right Call for Your Chrysler Sebring

Road salt and freeze-thaw cycles deteriorate every component in the Chrysler Sebring drum brake system over the same service interval. By the time a Sebring drum is worn, the shoes are typically at or near minimum thickness, the hardware is corroded, and the wheel cylinder boots are deteriorating on your Chrysler Sebring. Replacing drums and shoes alone while leaving worn springs and seized adjusters on the Sebring produces a service that underperforms within months.

Signs the Brake Drum Kit on Your Chrysler Sebring Is Due

• Rear brake pulsation or grabbing on your Chrysler Sebring during stops, out-of-round drum bore
• Grinding or scraping from the Sebring rear axle with the parking brake fully released
• Sebring drum inner surface scored or worn to maximum allowable diameter on inspection
• Friction lining at or below 1.5mm on your Chrysler Sebring visible during drum removal
• Parking brake on your Sebring requiring excessive travel before holding on a slope
• Chrysler Sebring pulling to one side under braking, asymmetric drum or shoe condition

Why GeoBrakes for the Chrysler Sebring Brake Drum Kit

Drum and shoe arc radius must match exactly for correct contact geometry on the Chrysler Sebring. An incorrect drum diameter or wrong-spec shoe lining for the Sebring produces immediate uneven wear and noise. Every kit in the GeoBrakes catalogue is assembled for the Chrysler Sebring, drum diameter, shoe arc, and hardware spring rates all confirmed as a matched set specific to the Sebring.

Frequently Asked Questions - Chrysler Sebring Brake Drum Kits

How do I know if I need a basic or full-service kit for my Chrysler Sebring?

A basic kit for the Chrysler Sebring is appropriate when the wheel cylinders have been recently replaced and show no signs of leaking. A full-service kit is the stronger choice during a high-mileage Sebring overhaul, particularly on American Chrysler Sebring vehicles with significant winter salt exposure.

Should I replace drum kits on both rear wheels of my Chrysler Sebring at the same time?

Yes. Always replace drum brake components on the Chrysler Sebring as an axle set, both left and right rear, to maintain balanced braking force. Drums and shoes at different wear stages on the Sebring create uneven rear braking that pulls the vehicle to one side.

Can I install a brake drum kit on my Chrysler Sebring myself?

Rear drum brake service on the Chrysler Sebring is a moderately advanced DIY task. It requires removing the drum, dismantling the shoe assembly on the Sebring, correctly routing return springs, and adjusting shoes to the correct drum clearance. A service manual specific to the Chrysler Sebring is essential.
