In one of my latest issues of Old Cars Weekly Job Lot Auto advertised new, not reconditioned, brake shoes for '39-50 3/4 ton trucks, front and back and '39-50 1 ton, fronts only. Their price for a set of four shoes, one axle, is $68.50. Up until now you had to get your shoes relined, you couldn't buy new ones from anywhere that I know of. I haven't checked on the price of relining shoes lately but I think I paid something like $10 a piece about ten years ago, but I'm not sure.

They don't have them listed on their web site. Some times Job Lot has '48-56 truck sales literature that you can down load but right now they don't.

I think these might also fit up to mid '51. I have a set of really nice brake drums from a late '51 that I can't use that I bought for my '49, not knowing Ford changed brake design in mid '51. It's best to call them before buying to verify.

 

You can get them from autozone for less BUT.....do not go into the store and ask for them, their numbering system is messed up and they will give you f1 shoes. You have to order them online. I have the part number some where if anyone is interested.
