Default Re: Bonded brake shoe failure- options

I've never had that happen with bonded, but that said, I always preferred Riveted Shoes.

Just like they way they look on there. The only negative is to not let them get too low before changing them out.

As far as a Booster goes, I've never felt the need for one. On some trucks, I hated them.

Nice looking truck, by the way.
