I got them at the opening bid and they were in a GM box. I'm not sure that anyone stocks them because there is very little demand. If your cores are still good, most large cities still have a shop that relines brake shoes. I have been using San Antonio Brake and clutch in San Antonio, TX for 50 years. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 2,401 Former Workshop Owner | | Former Workshop Owner Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 2,401 | I had my old ones re-lined on my '59 Viking 40 (1 1/2 ton). It cost me $40 per set (per wheel).

When wrestling a grizzly bear, you have to keep at it until the bear gets tired, not when you get tired. 1948 Chevy 2-Ton | | | | | Joined: Dec 2006 Posts: 720 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2006 Posts: 720 | Find your nearest big rig shop, they'll most likely have a place they send off the wall stuff to be relined. Our local shop has been a great asset when it comes to stuff like brakes and spring work.
It's better than playing a guessing game with E-pay parts anyway.

But thats just MY opinion! :P
