Relined Handbrake for 1956 GMC 250 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Check out this re-lined hand-brake for my GMC 250. We were able to get the brake lining material, drill the original rivets out, use high temp adhesive to attach the lining to the original metal. Then the holes were drilled, counter-sunk and new rivets were installed for that factory look. If anyone has a hand-brake that they need re-lined, give me a shout.

Good job, I used to do relining on brakes and brake bands, yours look like a new unit.
