Introducing Project "Scabra Tulitque"
I am cleaning up the brake parts and backing plates. We have 10" x 2.25" brake shoes in front and 9" x 2" brake shoes in rear. So far on the backing plates I have used brake cleaner, wire brush, Dremel tool (too remove rust on those little "grease pads") Simple Green, wax/grease remover, and one coat of Ospho. The Autozone replacement shoes for the rear have less surface area than the shoes that were on the vehicle (first photo). But I notice the ends have been beveled.
