2 1/2" wide rear brake shoes

[gary j zingle]

I am in the process of completing the rebuild
of the suspension/steering/brakes and am
having trouble sourcing one last component.

Nowhere can I find a listing for a 11" X 2 1/2"
brake shoe. Yet, as I understand it some
have used these wider shoes.

Any help with a listing for the part number for
these shoes or alternately for the vehicle they
may have originally been intended for would
be appreciated.

Gary this may or may not help. I have 2 3/4 " brake shoes installed
by previous owner. I recently purchased lifetime warrenty shoes from
NAPA. My recpt says 1976 Truck-Van G3500-1 ton 292 CI/4.8L L6
The cost was 24.29 a set (4 shoes) with 12.50 core deposit. Napa
part # is SS 450. Be aware there are changes made to brake hardware
to accomodate wide shoes.

Gary, sorry for the late reply but I obtained 2-1/2
inch brake shoes from local auto parts store. Wagner
PAB462RNA. Appear to be pretty good quality. Also,
Cinnibar has them in original asbestos for few more
$$.
