My local Autozone & O'Riely's tell me they don't have a source for RIVETED rear 10"x1.75" brake shoes! Does anyone make these now? Thx ahead
I just finished the book version of that documentary and YES, i agree, it's riveting ;)I saw a documentary on how ships were built...
Riveting...
I just finished a research project on the NAPA website and i couldn't see exactly where they have riveted shoes for a 71 Demon. I've had boring ole' regular shoes for 25 years so i'll just stay with those. Thx allmight have your application

I was looking for riveted because the self-proclaimed expert down the street said it’s the only way to go. I agree with you. Today’s technology is much advanced. ThxUNot sure I understand why you want them. In a previous life, I've sold thousands of shoes and turned zillions of drums and rotors. "Back in the day" I can understand, as bonding was not as advanced as now.
Normally I'd agree with other posters who preferred the bonded shoes given the improvement in adhesive technology over the last couple decades. But recently I purchased new disk pads for my '90 D350 truck from Autozone and one of the pads separated. By the time I got home the new rotor was also ruined. This had never happened to me in my lifetime. So while there are many new and improved adhesives out there I'm not sure the Chinese suppliers are using them. One advantage of the bonded linings is they wear longer and the rivet heads don't cut into the drum's friction surface if you forget to check them with the appropriate frequency.
