BMW part number 34211116476 (superseding older part number 34211111855) is the Rear Brake Shoe Hold Down Compression Spring. This spring acts as a staple hold-down component for early rear drum brake assemblies and is used with the corresponding 34211116477 pin. This part fits classic BMWs equipped with rear drum brakes or vehicles using an internal drum-in-hat parking brake setup.

BMW "Neue Klasse" & 02 Series (1962–1977)

• BMW 1500, 1600, 1800, 2000 (Sedan and Coupe variants)
• BMW 1502, 1602, 1802, 2002 (Including standard, 2002tii, and 2002turbo) 

BMW 3 Series (E21 Generation)

• 1977–1983 BMW 320i / 320is (Secures the primary rear drum brake shoes)

In the North American market, every BMW E12 5 Series (such as the 1975–1978 530i and 1979–1981 528i) came factory-equipped with standard hydraulic rear disc brakes. Unlike European entry-level base models (like the E12 518) which used large rear drum brakes, US models never used a drum brake setup to stop the vehicle while driving. However, part number 34211116476 is still natively utilized inside the rear wheels of all US-spec E12s with "Drum-in-Hat" parking brakes.
