Buffalowed Bill Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 I would like to know of some sources of the old style, asbestos brake linings or linings having an equivalent stopping capability for a 1963 Riviera. I might even consider some good used if the lining material is in good shape and of the proper type.-Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old-tank Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Take your old shoes to a brake/clutch rebuilder and tell them what you want...linings having an equivalent stopping capability are available. Off the shelf linings will not stop the car and may be one of the reasons for conversion to disc brakes.When you take the shoes in, take the drums too to turn if necessary and to arc the shoes to fit; that way there will be no break in required.
