Mitsubishi Mirage G4 Brake Drum Kit in US

A brake drum kit for the Mitsubishi Mirage G4 addresses the most common brake service shortcut: replacing shoes on a worn Mirage G4 drum, or fitting new drums with glazed, worn shoes. Either combination prevents correct break-in on the Mitsubishi Mirage G4. New shoes have a specific arc radius that must contact a fresh drum surface across the full lining width on your Mirage G4. A GeoBrakes drum kit eliminates that incompatibility by delivering matched drums and shoes confirmed for your Mitsubishi Mirage G4 in a single order.

What Is Included in the Mitsubishi Mirage G4 Brake Drum Kit

The kit for your Mitsubishi Mirage G4 includes OEM-spec cast-iron brake drums at the correct inner diameter for the Mirage G4 for both left and right rear wheels, drum brake shoes with OEM-grade friction lining matched to the Mitsubishi Mirage G4 drum bore and wheel cylinder specification, a brake hardware kit with return springs, hold-down hardware, and self-adjusters specific to the Mirage G4, and drum retaining hardware where required by the Mitsubishi Mirage G4 application.

Why American Conditions Make a Full Kit the Right Call for Your Mitsubishi Mirage G4

Road salt and freeze-thaw cycles deteriorate every component in the Mitsubishi Mirage G4 drum brake system over the same service interval. By the time a Mirage G4 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 Mitsubishi Mirage G4. Replacing drums and shoes alone while leaving worn springs and seized adjusters on the Mirage G4 produces a service that underperforms within months.

Signs the Brake Drum Kit on Your Mitsubishi Mirage G4 Is Due

• Rear brake pulsation or grabbing on your Mitsubishi Mirage G4 during stops, out-of-round drum bore
• Grinding or scraping from the Mirage G4 rear axle with the parking brake fully released
• Mirage G4 drum inner surface scored or worn to maximum allowable diameter on inspection
• Friction lining at or below 1.5mm on your Mitsubishi Mirage G4 visible during drum removal
• Parking brake on your Mirage G4 requiring excessive travel before holding on a slope
• Mitsubishi Mirage G4 pulling to one side under braking, asymmetric drum or shoe condition

Why GeoBrakes for the Mitsubishi Mirage G4 Brake Drum Kit

Drum and shoe arc radius must match exactly for correct contact geometry on the Mitsubishi Mirage G4. An incorrect drum diameter or wrong-spec shoe lining for the Mirage G4 produces immediate uneven wear and noise. Every kit in the GeoBrakes catalogue is assembled for the Mitsubishi Mirage G4, drum diameter, shoe arc, and hardware spring rates all confirmed as a matched set specific to the Mirage G4.

Frequently Asked Questions - Mitsubishi Mirage G4 Brake Drum Kits

How do I know if I need a basic or full-service kit for my Mitsubishi Mirage G4?

A basic kit for the Mitsubishi Mirage G4 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 Mirage G4 overhaul, particularly on American Mitsubishi Mirage G4 vehicles with significant winter salt exposure.

Should I replace drum kits on both rear wheels of my Mitsubishi Mirage G4 at the same time?

Yes. Always replace drum brake components on the Mitsubishi Mirage G4 as an axle set, both left and right rear, to maintain balanced braking force. Drums and shoes at different wear stages on the Mirage G4 create uneven rear braking that pulls the vehicle to one side.

Can I install a brake drum kit on my Mitsubishi Mirage G4 myself?

Rear drum brake service on the Mitsubishi Mirage G4 is a moderately advanced DIY task. It requires removing the drum, dismantling the shoe assembly on the Mirage G4, correctly routing return springs, and adjusting shoes to the correct drum clearance. A service manual specific to the Mitsubishi Mirage G4 is essential.
