I am relining my emergency brake linings and have a question. My band has 1/2" between the outer two holes. In the parts catalogs, they show two different pre-drilled linings. I ordered the ones for the 1/2" hole design. When I received them and tried to install them, the only holes that line up are the outer two holes. I tried reversing the lining and have the same result. I had a set of the other style pre-drilled linings and they don't even line up at all. Is there a third style of band hole pattern? I guess I will have to order the linings not drilled and drill them myself. Is there a special drill bit to do the countersinking?
