Denny,

I have not used linings from any of the reproduction vendors as they don't make much for the larger trucks. I did; however, find a local old school brake/clutch vendor in my area that installed friction material to my shoe cores. He recommended a "high friction" compound that would have been used on old vehicles like our antiques. I don't have the diving miles behind me to say if they squeak or not, but so far they have been great. The best part of the whole deal is that brake/clutch guy did the job for a very reasonable price, perhaps better than the reproduction vendors.
