Default Re: old Brake Floaters

Years agoI had bonded linings...they worked fine for a time. I found out later that the linnings that I purchased were very hard to begin with. Because we were in the mode of raising two young children....new brake shoes were out of question. The hard shoes glazed over ans squeeled alot. One way to stop/reduce the noise was to wire brush the shoes at the beginning of the touring season as well as cutting a notch every inch or so across the shoe to give the shoe dust somewhere to go. This method bought us some time until we found a company that had some very soft linnings.
