Brake Drums and Shoes
 

Need to replace the drums and shoes on the '97. What is a good set of drums and shoes that will last? Looks like rock auto sells shoes anywhere from $30 to $80 is there really that much of a difference between the $30 and $60 shoes? Also the current drums are Bosch drums, but didn't see those anywhere. Where is a good place to get drums or whats a good brand? This truck is always on the road.

always buy premium, and yes the good ones are made of higher nickel content and are less likely to wear in relation to the shoes ... I have a company here locally that re-lines big trucks stuff .. i get mine done there ... this stuff is awesome .. in the front I'm running Velva-touch pads and going to be going to vented rotors for increased brake torque as well ... :tu:
