Try a brake or clutch shop that specializes in relining them for large trucks. Several of us on here have done that.

If you have the 5 inch wide ones i used a winch brake pad material that was thicker than normal to get more from my drums. Dont be afraid to ask questions. You will be amazed
at the forklifts , cranes, etc. that all use the same style brakes.

Howdy,

It's been several years but my F-600 brakes were done at Cascade Friction in Tacoma

(same place as above!!)

Brake & Clutch Supply

They also had my vac booster sitting on the shelf for $125 exchange!


Cheers,


Rick
