Frequently asked questions

What does the rear Brake Adjuster Assembly do?

The rear Brake Adjuster Assembly sets and maintains shoe-to-drum clearance in the rear drum brake on the Land Rover Freelander 1 (1996-2006). It locates between the brake shoes and adjusts their rest position as the linings wear, keeping the shoes correctly spaced from the drum for consistent pedal travel. It's a Genuine Land Rover part.

How many adjusters are needed for a rear drum service?

Each rear drum has its own adjuster, so the Freelander 1 uses one per side. Many people renew both adjusters when refurbishing the rear drums, since a seized adjuster on one side leaves the shoes wrongly spaced and unbalances braking across the rear axle.

Why does a rear drum brake adjuster fail?

A rear drum adjuster on the Freelander 1 typically fails by seizing solid with corrosion, so it can no longer take up shoe wear. Symptoms include a long brake pedal, a slack handbrake, or shoes that won't centre in the drum. A seized adjuster is usually replaced rather than freed off.

Does this adjuster fit all Freelander 1 models?

This adjuster assembly fits the Land Rover Freelander 1 from 1996 to 2006 with rear drum brakes, from VIN 1A000001. It only suits drum-braked rear axles, so confirm your Freelander 1 has rear drums and check your VIN against the listed break before ordering.
