[QUOTE="Flyer58, post: 439155, member: 18629"] As for pads and shoes I think I went with something from the local auto parts store but I can't recall. But since you'll be in there I can recommend these two links for something to check for and help with installation 1) look for divots in the brake caliper from years of wear: [URL]https://wrangleryjforum.com/threads/my-brakes-suck.28425/[/URL] 2) on the drums make sure you properly seat the small cable around the curves plate and not under it. Half the negative reviews for drum shoes are about the cable when if it's not installed correctly it won't work.
