Why Replace Brake Hardware?
Brake hardware fatigues over time from repeated heating and cooling cycles. Weak springs cause brake shoes to drag against the drum, creating excessive heat, premature shoe wear, and reduced range on electric carts. Golf cart brakes are your primary safety system — always replace hardware when installing new brake shoes.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does this kit include brake shoes?
A: No — this is the hardware kit only (springs, pins, clips). Brake shoes are sold separately. We recommend replacing both shoes and hardware at the same time for best results.
Q: Will this fit my EZGO golf cart?
A: This kit fits 1996-UP EZGO TXT, 2008-UP RXV, and 1995-2006 Medalist G14-G22 models with factory drum brakes.
Q: How difficult is brake hardware replacement?
A: Moderate difficulty — requires removing the rear wheels and brake drums. You'll need basic hand tools and brake spring pliers (recommended). Allow 1-2 hours for a first-time DIY job.
Q: How often should brake hardware be replaced?
A: Replace brake hardware every time you replace brake shoes (typically every 3-5 years for average golf cart use). Springs lose tension over time even if they look fine.
Q: Do I need to adjust the brakes after installing this kit?
A: Yes — after installing new hardware and shoes, you must adjust the brake shoe clearance for proper pedal feel and equal braking force. Follow the EZGO service manual adjustment procedure.
