    Yes, one of my favorite cruises, but since I don't have a driver I've been stay'n home. A few more weeks I hope and I'll be on the road.

    Well, ya know that when you put a new shoe in an over sized drum it only makes contact in the center. There is a machine that will grind the shoes so that the radius is increased. This process reduces the thickness of the lining in the center but you end up with better braking. My next shoes will be bonded with thicker lining and then ground to match the drums. If you have any questions just PM me and we can talk.
