I did my own,turned out good.Sand blasted the lining surface clean.From local Auto Zone got a set of Frt. shoes listed for Ford-Dodge 4x4 with 12"x2" drums. These shoes had riveted linings,drilled out rivets and had the new lining material needed.Used linings as template to lay out holes.Had to do some looking but finally found proper size steel pop rivets.used a generous amount of heavy duty epoxy between lining and shoe.Had to grind about 3/16" from both pieces of adjuster to get drum to fit over new linings.They are about 3 times thicker than orig. Did this about 2 yrs. ago,use trailer quite a bit,still work and look good.Can do 4 wheels for about $50
