Follow up on relining the brake shoes for my 100M.

 

I could not find anyone left in the Pittsburgh area that does an acceptable
job of bonding linings.  I did find a company in NJ that does brake relining
for a variety of applications including vintage cars.  They recommended a
combination of bonding and riveting but reducing the number of rivets to 6,
using solid brass rivets, and cutting the rivets a little deeper than
original.  They also coat the shoes with stainless steel paint to avoid rust
issues.  Cost will be between $45 - $55 per shoe plus shipping with a 5-day
turnaround.  The company is Reddaway Manufacturing
http://www.redcoproducts.com/.  The person that handles their vintage shop
work is Todd Walker, (cell) 732-685-9220.

 

Also found a company that will do just bonding in Maplewood, NJ .

Price is $ 22.50 per shoe plus shipping, Lead time usually 2 to 3 days,
