The squealing came back in the re passenger side brakes. For now I have backed off the shoes a bit. Car won't be getting a lot of use whilst we are up here in the Iron Range. Shoe lining is pretty thin. Reckon they are the original shoes - so now have around 235,000kms on them. Don't think my back wants be to be replacing them, so will likely wait until we get back down to Mareeba where I'll pay someone to fit them.

Thinking I'll order some online rather than just accept whatever the Mareeba mechanic can get at the time - any rear drum brake owners out there have brake shoe brands to say good things about? RDA, DBA, Bendix & a few others I hadn't heard of, plus heaps on ebay with no brand name. Cheapest I've seen were Repco's own brand at $11 per pair!

What say you?
