Re: IML: SV: '62 Identifying Brake Shoes



I have seen it both ways. My '60 Custom has the best brakes of all my Center Plane cars. The linings are all the same on it. When I did all the brake jobs in 2003, the shoes were relined all the same. I was able to buy new shoes for the '63 and the '65, they came with less lining on the leading shoe.

I don't think this is the case on these brakes. I know that's true on 63 up, but 60-62 have all shoes with the same amount of lining on them.

The Primary or leading brake shoe's lining material is shorter. This is the front shoe of the wheel being worked on. The rear shoe's lining material is longer. This hold true for both front and rear brake shoes on a drum brake set up or rear drum &front disc setup.  The FSM shows a clear picture to aid you.The metal portion is the same for both primary & secondary shoes. I would recomend you save your old shoes & have them relined.
