Rear Brake Shoes

Post by XVC375 »

Hi All

I'm after some rear brake shoes for my A35 (front brakes are disks) but being new to this, I am a little bewildered by all the different model numbers. So, quick question - what is the 'modern' equivalent to the originals?

Thanks

Dan

All A30/A35 brake shoes front & rear are the same from 1951-1968, they were also fitted to A40 Farina MK1 (rear only) 1958-1961, they do crop up from time to time on a certain auction website, also you could try our club spares for them :thumbs:
