I'm ford brake shoe illeterate!
OK, I have ford drums all the way around my 59. How do I know what year to purchase for? Do I just remove the pads/shoes and take them in to match them up? I don't know the history on the brakes...Thx, J.

Measure the inside diameter of the drums and the width of the shoes and you should be all set. You have Ford front drums on a Chevy?

Re: I'm ford brake shoe illeterate!
I'm just guessing I do. All 4 corners are ford lug measurements 5x4.5 or is it 5x4.75. I get confused. It's not the GM lug pattern. ford 9" out back and I can fit the rear wheel on the front and vice-versa...
