I recently bought a 51 Chevy 3800 flatbed dually, knowing it needed brake work. What I didn't know was how hard it would be to find brake shoes for it.

It doesn't help I am very new to all of this. From searching the forum I've seen that I probably have a pre Huck brake system.

Where would be a good starting point to find shoes for the front brakes? The local parts store is not looking like a reliable source. Or should I just try to have them relined? And where would be someplace that would do that for me?
