Where to Buy new brake shoes....?

Post by Mai Ki-Ki »

My brakes are pretty knackered.....need to replace the front wheel cylinders and all shoes front and back and get drums re-machined. :?

I can get wheel cylinders from eBay or Rare Spares, but where to get the shoes...? Anyone ?

I feel the need, the need to stop. :thumbsup:

Cheers Maiki

Two options Maiki, pull the old ones off and get them relined and your drums machined all in one by a brake place. Or order in new ones at almost any brake workshop or parts supplier. I've been getting my brake stuff at Allied in Cranbourne, before that I got stuff from Moorabbin Brakes Plus ( EH stuff off the shelf ).

You'll probably get it all there as well as slave cylinders.

My route home from work takes me through Fitzroy, (see your car, MKK now and then). Think my brakes on the VE squealed once ;) better get 'em checked just to be safe.
