Brake Shoes another Question

Hello again list:

Here is my source for vintage vehicle brake shoes. This is actually the source that our local parts stores use in Washington State (maybe others as well), but the parts guy at the shop where my husband works hooked us up with this, and we are passing on to you all. We haven't bought brakes for our Imp from them, but we did for our DeSotos, and they were fast and inexpensive. We paid $75.00 plus core ($50 I think) and I had them in like two days paying by credit card over the phone.

Even if you don't want to order shoes from these guys, there is someone there who can answer any question that you have about brakes shoes.

Subject: IML: Brake Shoes another Question

Does anybody know it the front shoe-set the same as the rears (1958)? Also,
is one shoe larger than the other and if so which one goes in the front?
