Ok this is kind of a dumb question, but in the guys defense I’m sure the manual refers to it as brake linings instead of shoes. There are several parts on a truck like that. Brake pods are the same as brake chambers, kingpins or ball joints etc.
Then you have to figure in the truckers jargon. Rag for a tarp, skateboard for flatbed, gator for tire cap etc. No doubt a bit to learn for a new guy.
Is the "inside of the drums" the same thing as the inside of the rim?

i think "it BEST" for the o/p to use the same terminology, as what IS IN THE BOOK, and not confuse him/herself anymore than what is required.
