I had my shoes relined here in the Twin Cities for my 1950 1 ton. Took two 2 days and price was excellent for the work they did. Shoes looked like new when I got them back. Goodluck with your truck.

I found relining mine was just fine. Once you get them back from the brake shop they look like new and work just as well, not to mention the price wasn't bad.

If so they may be able to do it there or find out who does them for them. May save some shipping and be able so see what you get....or as mentioned, do them yourself. That sounds like FUN. | | |
