Re: Rear Brake ?
I would assume you need the shoes that go with the drums, if I am understanding the question correctly. I'm not sure if they are the same from year to year, but my guess would be no.... are the backing plates the same?

Re: Rear Brake ?
You are doing a axle swap right?
If I remember correctly you just need to swap the drums. The other stock brake parts will work fine.. Last edited by Bazooka; 08-13-2009 at 04:35 PM. |

Re: Rear Brake ?
If the drums are the same size I don't see why it wouldn't work just fine with the old hardware/shoes.
