SSH769 shoes are precision cam ground to match the drum arc for full contact across the entire friction surface, post cured to shorten break-in time and deliver stronger initial stopping force right out of the box, and chamfered on both ends to eliminate the squeal and chatter that commonly develops in drum setups. A complete hardware kit is included with every set so you have everything needed to complete a full rear brake service without a separate hardware purchase. All friction materials are 100% asbestos-free and copper-free.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSemi-metallic friction compound post cured for faster break-in and stronger initial brake response\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrecision cam ground arc geometry ensures full contact across the 9-inch drum surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChamfered shoe ends prevent squeal, chatter, and edge noise in the Wrangler's drum brake setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBonded shoe construction eliminates exposed rivet heads that can score drum braking surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew steel backing plates with a black rust-resistant coating for extended underbody service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100% asbestos-free and copper-free friction material meets current federal and California standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete hardware kit included: springs, retainer pins, adjuster, and clips\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect fit for 2001-2006 Jeep Wrangler TJ and TJ Unlimited rear drum applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eVehicle Fitment\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eYear Range\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMake\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2001-2006\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eJeep\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWrangler\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePart Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSSH769\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSeries\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAutospecialty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePosition\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRear\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFriction Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSemi-Metallic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBonding Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBonded\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDrum Diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9 in (228.6 mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShoe Width\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.5 in (63.5 mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardware Included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes (complete kit)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAsbestos Free\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCopper Free\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChassis\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTJ \/ TJ Unlimited (LJ)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSold As\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSet (both rear wheels)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUPC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eN\/A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 x PowerStop SSH769 semi-metallic rear brake shoes (full rear axle set)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete hardware kit: return springs, hold-down springs, retainer pins, adjuster assembly, and clips\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Jeep Wrangler models does the PowerStop SSH769 fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SSH769 fits 2001-2006 Jeep Wrangler TJ and TJ Unlimited (LJ) models equipped with the 9-inch rear drum brake system. This includes Sport, Sahara, Rubicon, and X trim levels from those model years that use the standard 9-inch rear drum configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat drum size do the SSH769 shoes fit on the Jeep Wrangler TJ?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SSH769 is designed for the 9-inch (228.6 mm) diameter rear drum with a 2.5-inch (63.5 mm) shoe width. This is the standard rear drum configuration on 2001-2006 Wrangler TJ models after the March 2000 production cutover. Earlier TJ models and YJ models with 9-inch drums use a different shoe part number.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the SSH769 come with the hardware kit for a complete brake job?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. PowerStop includes a complete hardware kit with the SSH769 covering return springs, hold-down springs, retainer pins, and the adjuster assembly. You will not need to source separate hardware to complete the rear drum brake service on your Wrangler.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eCan the SSH769 handle off-road use and trail driving?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SSH769 Autospecialty shoes are designed and rated as OE-equivalent stock replacement parts. They are well-suited for standard trail use and off-road driving at typical recreational speeds. For extreme trail or competition use involving sustained heavy braking on steep grades, a higher-performance drum shoe compound may be more appropriate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need to resurface my Wrangler TJ rear drums before installing the SSH769?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInspect the drum surface before installation. If the inner braking surface shows deep scoring, grooves, or has been machined to near or beyond the discard diameter (typically 9.060 inches for the TJ), the drum should be resurfaced or replaced. Installing new shoes against a worn or scored drum surface leads to uneven break-in, noise, and accelerated wear of the new friction material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eAre the SSH769 shoes compatible with both the standard TJ Wrangler and the TJ Unlimited (LJ)?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The SSH769 fits both the standard 2001-2006 Jeep Wrangler TJ and the longer-wheelbase TJ Unlimited (LJ) models. Both share the same rear axle assembly and 9-inch drum brake specification, making the SSH769 a direct fitment for both variants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the difference between bonded and riveted drum brake shoes for the Wrangler TJ?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBonded shoes like the SSH769 use high-pressure adhesive bonding to secure the friction lining to the steel backing plate, eliminating exposed rivet heads. Riveted shoes use metal fasteners that can score and gouge the drum surface if the friction lining wears down to the rivet level. Bonded construction also provides a cleaner contact surface and often allows the shoe to be used to a slightly lower minimum thickness before replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eHow long should the SSH769 brake shoes last on a Jeep Wrangler used for both street and light off-road driving?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRear drum shoe service life on a Jeep Wrangler varies significantly based on driving mix and load. Street and light trail driving typically yields 30,000 to 50,000 miles. Regular towing, heavy trail use with sustained brake application on descents, or driving in wet and sandy conditions can shorten service intervals. Inspect shoes annually or at each tire rotation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is PowerStop's warranty on the SSH769?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePowerStop covers the SSH769 under a limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Contact PowerStop customer support with your proof of purchase to initiate a warranty claim if a defect is found.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Instructions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSafely lift and support the Wrangler on jack stands at all four corners. Remove the rear wheels.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemove the rear brake drum. If the drum is seized to the hub, use a drum puller or strike the drum face gently with a rubber mallet while rotating. Inspect the drum braking surface for scoring and verify the inner diameter is within the discard spec (9.060 inches). Resurface or replace if necessary.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBefore disassembly, photograph the complete shoe, spring, and cable arrangement on one side as a reference for reassembly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUsing brake spring pliers, remove the upper return spring, lower return spring, hold-down springs, and retainer pins. Disconnect the self-adjuster cable from the anchor pin and guide. Remove the shoes and adjuster assembly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClean all backing plate contact ledges with brake cleaner. Apply a light coat of high-temperature brake grease to the six contact ledge points only. Keep grease off the drum surface and friction material.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstall the new adjuster assembly and SSH769 shoes using the hardware provided in the kit. Seat hold-down pins first, then route the self-adjuster cable through the cable guide and attach return springs per your reference photograph.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExpand the adjuster until the drum fits with light drag when rotated by hand.
