What years does this kit fit?
This kit fits the 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020 Hyundai Elantra. Confirm your vehicle has rear drum brakes rather than rear disc brakes before ordering, as some Elantra trim levels may differ.
Does the 2017-2020 Hyundai Elantra have rear drums?
Many 2017-2020 Hyundai Elantra trims use rear drum brakes, particularly SE and Value Edition models. Higher trims may include rear disc brakes. Check your specific build data or physically inspect the rear axle to confirm drum configuration before purchasing.
Are the drums new or remanufactured in this kit?
This kit uses new drums, not remanufactured components. This eliminates concerns about core condition and previous wear patterns.
Is a core deposit required for this kit?
No core deposit is required because all components in this kit are new.
What is the bedding procedure for this kit?
After installation, perform a break in period of gradual stops from moderate speeds for the first 200 miles before applying aggressive braking. This allows the shoes to seat properly against the drum surface.
Does this kit come with all hardware needed for installation?
The kit includes drums and shoes with applicable hardware. If the wheel cylinder or adjuster hardware is worn, those components would need to be replaced separately.
