    In all my years, I delivered on this side of the GW bridge, never once did I go over it. Everyone gets to run their truck how they see fit.

    If at the end of the year, you file your taxes and your happy. Then all is good!!!!!!!!

    I just did drum&shoes on my drives 2 weeks ago... I have the wider kind I think the shoes are 8.5" that are referred to as "mountain brakes" which are more expensive.

    Originally they had them for $190.00 at peterbilt. Called PBS truck parts they had them for $170.00, called peterbilt back and they beat the price by $20.00 a drum... so got them for $150 each...

    I would shop around

    Didn't gave a choice :( I needed to replace them we pulled both sides and only passenger side was bad new brakes cracked because the drum. Now I can't run centermatics on steers because they don't fix on the drum right lol.
