I am working on relining my brake shoes. Unfortunately, there is not enough of the original lining left to determine its initial thickness. Anyone know off-hand how thick of a material I should order? My truck is a 49 3/4 ton.
She may not always start, and She may not always get me where Im going, but goddamnit, she will always stop.

If they are significantly thinner than original you might need oversize shoes. Mine falls in this category and it does seem to create some issues. Will probably have to get new drums. | | |
