But they only list years back to '62 Don, just like many of
the big box auto parts outlets.
Problem with them is that they have inexperienced kids working
the counter who only know how to read what's on the computer
screen, which, we can do also.
I haven't seen a vendor that lists soft/medium/hard as a choice.
As far as installing a damper on the drum, I would try them if
I could find the correct size spring. There are three grooves
that could retain a spring damper. I'd be willing to try that
before replacing the shoes because the brakes are great on
this truck except for the squealing.

10% confidence score, I'd bet a different compounded lining
will end up being the answer.
I kind of expected to hear some similar stories from people
that have used shoes from our online vendors. Surely I'm not
the only Advance Design operator that is experiencing this
annoyance, I'm sure others have used lining from our
old truck vendors, no?
