Raybestos 528PG Drum Brake Shoe Professional Grade Rear

Raybestos 528PG Drum Brake Shoe is a rear-drum brake shoe from Raybestos, part of the Element3 Organic line, and identified by the part number 528PG; it is designed for use in the rear brake assemblies of vehicles that still rely on drum brake technology. This Organic lining variant employs a non-metallic friction compound in the Element3 Organic family, and the Professional Grade (PG) designation signals a higher-quality formulation intended to meet the wear and fade resistance standards typical of Raybestos' PG lineup. Certain catalog listings specifically note compatibility with the Toyota Celica rear brake system for the 1983 model year, providing a practical reference for technicians replacing worn shoes on that application; however, fitment should always be confirmed against the vehicle's exact brake hardware and drum dimensions. As a rear brake shoe, the 528PG is designed to replace worn friction surfaces and should be used with the corresponding Raybestos rear drum components (drums, backing plates, springs) as specified in the vehicle's service information.
