Rear Drum Brake Shoes
I am getting ready to a full truck brake job and I was asked what size brake shoes are on the rear. I didnt know that there are 2 different sizes. 11x2 and 11x 2 3/4. Which one is standard? Dumb question I know.

11" x 2" are standard. 11" x 2 3/4" are heavy duty. At least they were for my 69 C10.
