    On eBay now, seller is helpforcars and they are buy-it-now $37.50 plus S&H, no I don't know the seller. Good luck.
     
  4. wwwplydo.com 304-475-3245 # 08-bs. A set of four is 60$
    and has compleate kits for the car, also napa sells shoes as well as wwwkanter.com they have everything for the system including all four wheel cyc.
    You can also look to disks on front with a plydo kit and backing plates off any 8,3/4 mopar rearend and lose the extra wheel cycl. and use a more meaty wider drum on the rear.

    Plymouth 1952 NAPA does not sell them for my car Online or at the store, But I will try the others mentioned.
    Hoping I can get a set shipped here before next weekend or she isnt coming out for GoodGuys in Columbus.

    For some reason when I try to go to this site it is not right. If you have a link it would be great.

    Thanks again
     
  7. call your local clutch and brake reliner. call one of the big truck shops they will know where a brake reliner is.

    Thanks 55!

    I was actually thinking about that. Now all I gotta do is find someone who can reline them. Living in the middle of nowhere can sure have its disadvatages at times. :D

    Shoe
     
  11. It would appear they have let there Page go. to bad had good luck with them for years. . go oldplymouths.com and look up parts for sale and parts help. This is the best sorce of information for 49/52 plymouths and dodges. then there is kanter auto parts.
    If you get in a bind let me know I have 8 nice shoes but I have no Idea what shipping would be. Bob

    The old NAPA paper catalog says B-43 front or rear; 10x 2"; Most aftermarker brake shoe producers used the same part umber with per different prefixes or suffixes, so mabe with that number they can cross reference.

    I am going to try to find some one to re line them Monday. If I can not find a place I am screwed. I was hoping to finish it by the 12th to get to Goodguys in Columbus. I never thought that the shoes were going to be the hardest part to replace. I have changed everything in it brake wise but the shoes and now I cant find them. Thanks for all your help everyone.
