Brake Shoe Pin Set Kit (Drum Brake Shoe Pivot/Anchor Pins) for Royal Enfield Classic 350 / Bullet 350 UCE / Electra 350 UCE – 888305 (Drum Brake Only)

Royal Enfield 888305 is the genuine Brake Shoe Pin Set Kit used in drum brake assemblies to locate and support the brake shoes on the brake plate (commonly referred to as brake shoe pivot pin / anchor pin / drum brake shoe pin). If your drum brake feels rough, the shoes don’t sit square, the pin is worn/rusted, or you’re rebuilding the brake plate during restoration, replacing the pins restores proper shoe movement and reduces uneven wear.

This part is also searched as “rear brake shoe pin kit”, “drum brake anchor pin”, “brake shoe pivot pin”, “brake shoe pin & nut kit”, “PS888305”, “888305 brake pin”. Many sellers market it specifically for Classic/Bullet/Electra drum brake setups.

Before you buy: This is for drum brake shoe plates only. Not for disc brake calipers. Confirm by photo: your brake plate must have brake shoes + return springs (drum type) and the old pin dimensions should match (some sellers quote ~61 mm overall length; verify on your sample).

FAQs 

Q1 (Fitment): Is 888305 for rear brake or front brake?
It’s for a drum brake shoe plate (brake shoes + springs). Depending on your model/variant, drum brakes may be rear (common) or front (older models). The safe confirmation is photo-match your brake plate and verify your old pin dimensions.

Q2 (Fitment): Will this fit my Classic 350 / Bullet 350 / Electra 350?
✅ Confirmed by multiple sellers for UCE-era Classic/Bullet/Electra when the bike has a drum brake shoe plate. If your bike has a rear disc/caliper, this is the wrong part.

Q3 (Comparison): Genuine vs aftermarket brake shoe pins—what’s the difference?
Genuine kits are spec’d for correct shoulder/length so brake shoes sit square on the plate. Aftermarket pins often “fit” but can cause misalignment, uneven shoe wear, or sticky shoe movement—especially if the shoulder length differs.

Q4 (Installation): Any precautions while replacing drum brake shoe pins?
Remove the wheel + brake plate safely, note spring orientation, clean the plate, inspect shoe lining, and reassemble with proper lubrication points (where applicable). Ensure free shoe movement before refitting the wheel.

Q5 (Symptoms): What problems does 888305 typically solve?
Worn/rusted pivot/anchor pins, shoes not returning smoothly, inconsistent braking feel, uneven shoe contact marks, and brake plate rebuild during restoration.

Q6 (Returns-prevention): What do I need to share to confirm before dispatch?
Send (1) bike model + year, (2) a clear photo of the brake shoe plate (shoes visible), and (3) a photo of the old pin next to a scale/tape (length). This prevents wrong orders across similar-looking Bullet/Classic variants.
