Re: [Chrysler300] Soiled brake shoes

Lining separation will also cause a nasty pull, that can be hard to tell where it’s coming from. My old 59 Imperial had a bad pull to the right that you would swear was from the right front. It turned out to be a separated lining on the right rear. New shoes and it stopped straight as an arrow.

FWIW...
In the transportation industry, soiled linings are a RED FLAG for a citation and consequent deadline of the equipment until fixed and reinspected.
Ever wonder about the stories from time to time where busses suddenly catch on fire by the rear wheels??
Then there is/can be the issue with "rust jacking", rust developing between the shoes and the tables, more of a problem w/riveted linings though but
Possible w/bonded ones if not fully bonded to the tables I would imagine.

Happened to me except it was a leaking bearing seal. Never put a mile on the linings! Can’t boil that out so a new reline was needed.

Old Car's Weekly tip. Say you have a set of completely arced and working shoes on your centerplane lettered car and they get saturated with brake fluid while in storage. They suggest getting a bucket that will hold them, fill with water and a good dose of dish washing detergent, boil for 20-30 minutes and the brake fluid will be poured out with the water.

Eat, Drink, and be Larry........
