Transmission Handbrake Shoe Set is the friction pair for the drum-type parking brake mounted on the rear output of the transfer box.

When the handbrake lever is applied, the rod-operated mechanism expands these shoes against the brake drum to lock the transmission output and hold the vehicle stationary. Renewing both shoes together maintains even, balanced holding force.

Supplied as a matched set of shoes.

Frequently asked questions

What is the STC965 Transmission Handbrake Shoe Set?
The STC965 Transmission Handbrake Shoe Set is the friction pair for the drum-type parking brake on the rear output of the transfer box. Applying the handbrake expands these shoes against the drum through the rod-operated linkage, locking the transmission output to hold the vehicle. This is the Delphi version, supplied as a matched set.
How many shoes do I need for the handbrake?
One STC965 set contains the matched pair of shoes needed for the single transmission drum, so one set does the whole parking brake. Renewing both shoes together keeps the holding force even. Check the drum and the operating linkage for wear while the assembly is apart.
Why won't my transmission handbrake hold?
A transmission handbrake usually stops holding when the shoe linings wear thin, become oil-contaminated from a leaking transfer box output seal, or the drum glazes. On the Defender and Discovery 1, oil contamination is a common cause, so cure any leak before fitting new shoes.
Which Land Rovers do these handbrake shoes fit?
These handbrake shoes fit the rod-operated transmission brake on the Land Rover Defender (1983-2006), Discovery 1 to chassis WA799999, and Range Rover Classic. Range Rover Classic fitment runs to gearbox number 36D22144A, so check your chassis and gearbox numbers before ordering.
