Brake Linings

Vech has an article on relining brake shoes on his website:

Look this over. I'm sure he or Richard would be glad to answer a few questions as well if you called.

Brake Linings

Post by VBMWMO »

I'm attempting to replace the brake linings on my R26. I have new linings, and rivets. Is this something I can do myself, and if so, what tools will I need? Any other advise is greatly appreciated.
