Title: front brake shoe spring Post by: my8thholden on June 26, 2025, 01:25:52 PM Where is best place to buy , or has any one got new , front brake shoe retention springs , I need a pair for standard FC drum brakes ..Also same request for FC sedan hand brake cable , rear section drums to pivot point ..
Title: Re: front brake shoe spring Post by: Jolls on June 26, 2025, 04:30:44 PM Expensive Bits (earlybitz) has a replacement kit that includes springs and clips etc on eBay for $89.99
If you have the pins I would imagine that any of the later model clips would fit. I don't have any handy for reference but Rares stocks them for HT-WB for $29.95. Rares and Resto/Kingswood Country also have the Handbrake Cable Rear (FE FC FB EK Manual) - 7409623 $114.95 I have that one and the front cable on my list to purchase.

It will be FB but maybe the same. I’ll post up a pic with some dimensions. I recall front snd rear are different. Been a while since I gave up on stock brakes.

The friction material on the leading shoe came away from the metal shoe and travelled around with the drum and jammed the mechanism and the wheel ...B and R brakes had a set of shoes on the shelf , two sets in fact ..so I got out of trouble , passed rego , I am not happy with one of the cylinders , also hand brake is sticky ,so i'll do a overhaul all round ..
