Here is Seattle there is a company called Brake and Clutch that does it. | | | | | Joined: Aug 2018 Posts: 1,004 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Aug 2018 Posts: 1,004 | you can get the brake friction material from McMaster Carr,
they have lots of options and widths to choose from, its usually standard widths like 2, 2.5, 3 inches etc.
they also sell the material suitable to rebuild your own service brake shoes if you feel like giving that a try too

Thanks again,
