Shoe return spring
A brake shoe return spring for the front drum brake, listed under 37-1515 (also W1515).
37-1515 is a brake shoe return spring, listed in our records under the front wheel section. On a drum brake setup, this spring pulls the brake shoes back away from the drum once you release the lever, keeping the shoes from dragging and helping them center properly in the drum when the brake's not applied.

This one shows up under the older W1515 form as well, which is the legacy way this same spring was numbered in earlier parts books. It only turns up once in our catalog data, so we don't have a broad model list to point to.
If you're replacing one, it's worth checking the shoes and pivot points while you're in there since a tired return spring is often found alongside worn shoes or a dry pivot.
