Optimize Performance: Ensure Your VW T4 Rear Drum Brakes are in Peak Condition!

Maintain optimal performance by ensuring your VW T4 rear drum brakes are operating at their best. Regular maintenance is key to keeping your T4 rear brakes effective, whether you need to slow down smoothly or secure your vehicle when parked. Notably, all European Type 4 models were equipped with rear drum brakes from 1990 to 2003, with the exception of the 4WD Syncro models.

Tailored for Excellence: VW T4 Rear Drum Brake Specifics

Understanding the specifics of your T4's rear drum brakes is crucial. T4 Syncro rear brakes boast a diameter of 270mm, differing from the regular 2WD models with 250mm rear drums. Matching T4 brake shoes will naturally be smaller in both diameter and width. Additionally, the brake drum backing plates vary between 2WD and 4WD models.

Leak-Free Assurance: Maintain Your T4 Rear Wheel Cylinders

The rear wheel cylinders play a pivotal role in operating your rear brake shoes. Regular checks for brake fluid leaks inside and outside the brake drum are essential to ensure both braking efficiency and personal safety. Heritage Parts Centre offers OEM and cost-effective reproduction options for T4 rear wheel cylinders, catering to various budget constraints.

Expert Brake Bleeding Tips: Keep Your T4 Rear Brakes Efficient

Efficiently bleed your T4 rear brakes after any hydraulic system work, such as replacing rear wheel cylinders or brake hoses. Air in the system leads to a spongy pedal feel and subpar brake performance, posing risks under heavy load.
