I have purchased (exchanged) brake pads through Swiss Army Vehicles for years. Sarah works the parts phone and has always been great to work with. Also, occasionally they well come up for sale on EBay.

+1 on Sarah....she actually called me once to tell me I had ordered to many parts for what I wanted to do!! Saved me about $50!

Not trying to take away from SAV (go with them if you can), but ff you need them fast, most truck shops can match and rivet them onto the shoe. A local place riveted mine back onto the shoes when the glue failed shortly after purchase.

What is the thickness of the lining for the brake shoes?
I found a place near home to have them relined.

Thanks Paul.
Nalor Auto near midway airport. They will do mail order. They will also cut the slots/scrapers into the linings.
