Title: Re: brake shoes Post by: mcl1959 on October 31, 2011, 01:23:12 PM I worked with brakes for 5 years at Hoppers Stoppers and they only ever used the best quailty brake lining and rotor suppliers because there is a big difference between the reliable brands and the cheap stuff. We would get people coming in frequently telling us about how they got their brakes done at some cheaper company than us and now the brakes squeel or the rotors are warped or they don't work well. (there are 6 places where you can get brakes done within 1 km of Hoppers Stoppers)
So here is my recommendation - don't put the cheapest brand of brakes on your car - Sure shop around for cheapest deal on a quality product, but always buy quailty. For original cars, NOS linings are the best thing possible - they do contain asbestos but the danger was really with the manufacture of the lining rather than the useage. These are still very cheap on ebay but you do have to rivet them on. Ken Title: Re: brake shoes Post by: zl296 on October 31, 2011, 04:59:00 PM no worrys thanks for that advice ken...
