Bosch BS913 Rear Drum Brake Shoe Set for Honda Civic/Fit/Insight — Blue, OE-Style Fit & Asbestos-Free Friction

Bosch BS913 Blue rear drum brake shoes are a direct-fit replacement set engineered to restore reliable stopping power for compatible Honda Civic, Fit and Insight models.

Designed by Bosch — a recognized leader in braking components — this rear brake shoe set delivers OE-style fit, bonded asbestos-free friction and corrosion-resistant metal parts to help maintain consistent braking performance and extended service life. Each kit supplies both shoes for one axle (two wheels) and uses all-new steel with a rust-inhibitive coating for durability. Hardware is not included, so inspect and replace springs or pins if worn during installation.

What makes these brake shoes a dependable choice for my Honda?

Bosch engineered this BS913 set to meet common OE fit and wear expectations while using modern friction materials free of asbestos. The bonded construction stabilizes the friction material on the shoe, reducing noise and uneven wear. Metal parts are made of new steel with a protective coating to slow corrosion and preserve fitment over time.

• OE-style dimensions for straightforward replacement
• Bonded asbestos-free friction for consistent braking feel
• 100% new steel components with rust-inhibitive coating

How easy is installation and what should I prepare?

These shoes are designed for a no-hassle install when they match your vehicle’s rear drum specification. Because the set excludes retaining hardware, you should have the drum brake springs and clips inspected and replaced if they show fatigue or corrosion. Use basic hand tools and a brake spring tool to safely remove and install the shoes.

• Direct OE-style fit reduces adjustment needs
• Inspect and replace drum hardware if worn
• Brake spring tool and basic sockets recommended
