Question Brake shoe recommendation?

Hey, all you Drum Brake Club members -- what shoes should I use on the rear of my C-10? It has the 71-72 finned drums. My Pep Boys Raybestos shoes have plenty of material left, but all 4 are cracked. Who makes the good stuff ?

You know, I thought I posted the question a few days ago, but can't find it anywhere.

it might have been moved by one of the other moderators to engine and drivetrain....... why a question on brake shoes would be moved to engine and drivetrain i do not know

You're right. I found it on the Engine & Drivetrain board. Hey, being an old guy, I may have done it! You know what they say about memory. (I'd tell you but I forgot.)
