The part is built to the following specification: Inner brake drum height [mm]: 49 mm, Total brake drum height [mm]: 80 mm, Number of Holes: Copper. Each dimension is checked against the OEM reference to ensure the component seats and functions correctly first time. Compatible with FORD vehicles; use the vehicle selector above to confirm exact fitment for your make, model, and engine variant. Fitment data is sourced from TecDoc, the authoritative European parts catalogue. This part supersedes original equipment references: 6560028, 6920711. Matching these numbers confirms a like-for-like replacement with no loss of function.

Brake Drum buying guide

Why replace this part?

The brake drum provides the friction surface against which the brake shoes press to slow the vehicle. Scored, cracked, or excessively worn drums reduce braking effectiveness and generate heat and noise that accelerates shoe wear.

Signs you need a replacement

  • Pulsating or grabbing rear brakes
  • grinding or scraping noise from the rear when braking
  • deep scoring visible on the drum friction surface
  • drum thickness below minimum specification
  • vibration from the rear under braking

When to replace

Measure drum diameter at each brake service. Replace when worn to minimum specification or when scoring depth exceeds 0.5mm. Always replace as an axle pair.

Installation difficulty:Moderate — requires basic tools and mechanical knowledge
