Front brake shoes

Is there a part number for front brake shoes that will fit my 1946 Commodore Coupe? The ones that are on it now are too small and don't seem to engage much braking area.



It seems to me that I have read other posts that these are available at NAPA.



Thanks,



Jim Kilday

    FYI

    If you dont come up with a Number contact Dave Kostansek @ 440 293 4079. Dave will have the correct shoes & lining.

    (I installed the larger Hornet backing plates, shoes, & drums on my Hudson and now stops like power brakes).

    If you have 11" x 1.75" brakes, the number is TS55.

    I had my brake drums on my 37T recently machined, and they also bonded new linings onto the old shoes to match the new diameter of the drum. Have you considered this. Regards, Barry
