I also need to reline the brake shoes. I can't seem to find anything on this axel and can't find brake shoe lining material. Anyone have any suggestions of where to look? | | | | | Joined: Jan 2008 Posts: 4,962 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2008 Posts: 4,962 | GMC used the Timken axles and they are covered in their maintenance manuals. My preference is Motor's Truck Repair Manual. The 11th edition was printed in 1958. These books were written by mechanics out in the field where factory manuals were written by factory guys that never got grease under their fingernails. Old Motor's manuals appear on eBay regularly. There are still old brake service companies around. San Antonio Brake and Clutch in San Antonio, TX still reline old shoes. They call on us every week. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2011 Posts: 103 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Nov 2011 Posts: 103 | crenwelge- Thanks for the tips I'll check them out. | | | | | Joined: Aug 2009 Posts: 311 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Aug 2009 Posts: 311 | Hey bens48 I see your in Idaho, I am in Salt Lake City I had Page brake reline my shoes, and turn my drums, as well as rebuild and hone my wheel cylinders and master cylinder.
