Hi,
Did you identify a source for the brake shoes. We also need shoes for our aligator, can you point us in the right direction what to track down or where to look.
I would imagine the same shoes were fitted to all sorts of machines and vehicles ovee the years.
Cheers

agf, you will probably find they are standard 10" diameter brake shoes. One of two solutions, 1 - take the shoes with yoou to a brake shop and compare their stock or have new brake material either bonded or riveted onto your shoes.
Cheers Cobba
