E-Brake shoes

I got a set bonded up at my local brake place it cost $20>30 from memory.
Unless they're really worn down I wouldn't bother as even to brand new spec they're thin as so look worn out!

They burn off the old linings then "bond" the new ones on and radius grind them to size.
Bonding is a high temp gluing procedure and is how they're attached stock.

Hey simon, dno't waste your time goin to Autozone, Chekers or Advanced. None of them could get a hold of any.
bring them to a place that sells tractor trailer parts and such. They should be able to reline yours.
I bought mine locally at a dealer.
You need to make good friends with the parts dept if you own a Supra....
:aigo: :aigo: Finding out what some parts cost AFTER a bid war on Ebay will piss you off...:icon_evil :icon_evil
I had my Parking brake lining break loose while cooking down the highway... Trust me I was greatful it was the brake liner. I thought it was an Axle or worse from the hellish racket that came out of there.... Not to mention getting yanked sideways on the off ramp when it got a bite.
But yes I paid dearly and I know I have good ol yota parts that will last another 15 or so years.... (91 Turbo)
