Recomendation for Brake Shoes


Recommended Posts

So I finally got my '49 B1B up and running and into the town 4th of July Parade.  With 98 deg. temp was a little concerned with it over heating. Temp gage got to 180 deg. and held there for the full length of the parade, about 3 hours of running time.  Anyhow, this is the first time the truck is on the road since 1975 even though at the speed of smell in the parade.  The brake shoes are also circa 1975.  I am looking for recommendations for quality brake shoes (made in USA if possible).  Have read on this forum of replacement parts from overseas that lack quality and performance.  Hoping to find quality replacement shoes that others on the forum are happy with.  Best regards to all.
