brake shoes

skyhookman · 11-11-2008, 09:14 AM

Is the 1600 nad, rear brake shoes, organic or metallic, and what the best brand, besides personal preference. I don't have a personal preference, because I don't know any thing about them. I'm rough on rear shoes. Thanks

EBC seems to take the most votes on a previous thread. None seem to wear as good as the first stock pair.

Brake shoes? Your Nomad has a rear drum brake?

Even I understood that skyhookman meant pads CJ! Jeez......

cactusjack · 11-11-2008, 10:43 AM

It's all good.

I have heard none are better than the stock OEM pads. I read that the EBC are noisy and do not last long. At $82 (Canadian) for the OEM rear pads they had better be good !
