Need some help buying rear brake shoes
Time to do some normal maintenance on the brakes....my burb is a 1972 2wd 3/4 ton C20....how do I know if I have the 11 x 2" brake shoes or the 11-5/32 x 2-3/4" shoes?
Thanks for the help! Last edited by FLYNAVY30; 08-27-2013 at 09:02 PM. |

Re: Need some help buying rear brake shoes
Safest way is to pull the drum, get out a ruler and messure them. The width should be the easiest to tell, a difference of 3/4" is easy to see.

Re: Need some help buying rear brake shoes
rockauto.com is where I got my brake shoes, and they are name brand shoes that showed up within a couple days.
They have a good way of drilling down to the exact part you need, so I feel confident in buying parts like this from them.
