ratbailey Posted March 6, 2023 Report Share Posted March 6, 2023 Hey All, I picked up some NOS brake shoes to rivet onto my '48 DeSoto's shoes. However, the majority of them have four big holes drilled at one end of each shoe, right in an area where I need to place two rivets, like the one on the right in this picture: Curious to know...why?

MarcDeSoto Posted March 6, 2023 Report Share Posted March 6, 2023 Look like the two rivets are below the holes. I have never seen those holes. Could it be for heat dissapation? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgeb4ya Posted March 6, 2023 Report Share Posted March 6, 2023 I have seen the same holes over the years...don't know what they are there for either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
