Brake shoe lining in bonded

Post by youngb506 »

Hello,
Been having a few brake issues and on taking of one front drum I found the lining on one shoe had come off completely and on the other it's becoming in stuck. Can they be re stuck on?

I would not even consider the possibility. Buy some better quality shoes. Safety is paramount!

I find myself in agreement, it would be wise to replace near side and offside front shoes.

Yes, that's what I thought. If I could find the receipt for these shoes, which have only been on a year, I'd ask for a refund. Clearly a safety issue.
