Guest 38buick55special Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Hi guys I am wondering if anyone knows a Wagner, raybestos or centric part number for the rear shoes on my 55 special. If not does anyone know the size/dimensions. I took the rear brakes apart today and found no shoes in th rear. The springs and adjuster were in a shoe box in the trunk.

old-tank Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 The rear shoes are 12 x 1.75. Bob's Automobilia should have them, but they usually have a core charge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 38buick55special Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 So without a set to return there is no way of getting a set without paying the core?? What about a set of shoes for another vehicle. 12 X 1 3/4 are also on fords and internationals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 38buick55special Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Any reason these wouldn't work? http://m.advanceautoparts.com/mt/shop.advanceautoparts.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_thermoquiet-organic-brake-shoes-wagner_20609527-p?isAllVehicle=false&showTitle=&vehicleIdFromReq=43160&vehicleIdSearch=43160&un_jtt_v_cookiecheck=on&un_jtt_redirectWagner Ana30r Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found some 55 Special rear shoes, suitable for core/rebuilding. PM me if interested.Willie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
