That price would've been cheap 20 years ago. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/69440-brake-parts-prices/#findComment-493902 Share on other sites More sharing options...

67RModel Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Are these the kind of shoes you can reline yourself with brass bolts? I have herd of these but never seen them. Maybe that is how they all were a long time ago. I don't know......

67RModel Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Also, I bought 3 axles worth of brake drums, shoes, hardware and wheel seals a year ago from the Mack dealer and I think they were into me for about $2300 in parts (that might have included the shoes core charges). This was for 1 Mack 44,000 drive axle, 1 Mack 18,000 pound steer axle, and 1 Spicer 20,000 drop axle. All Dayton wheel/hubs. I could have saved a little money buying TRP junk but I opted for the Gunite drums and Meritor shoes and hardware. The seals they sold me were SKF.

Gunite and meritor drums and shoes have really gone up in price here Pays to shop around!

mowerman Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Not a clue but 2300 sounds more like it these days everything is really expensive truck parts are a fortune… bob Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/69440-brake-parts-prices/#findComment-493969 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hans Remmers Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 Last set of 58 rears I put brakes on was 18 years ago. They have 18" Eaton cast iron cores. I believe the linings are bolted but around here everything rusts so bad buying relined shoes is a necessity. I'd say the price is 2-3 times that of a conventional 16.5 x 7 brake job.

MACKS Posted April 1, 2022 Author Share Posted April 1, 2022 Last brake job on this truck about four years ago,shoes were about 60 each and drums were 150 each,there probably double that now,will find out soon,I remember the bolt on shoes in the past but there all riveted now unless you have a set of your own I guess u can still buy pads,the core charge is 250 per shoe if your own shoes are damaged,you also have to buy the bolt kit for the drums and the brake kit with springs pins and bushings,and new s cams if needed and seals,gets very pricy..

I have herd of these but never seen them. Maybe that is how they all were a long time ago. I don't know...... A real long time ago. guess you missed all the fun of brake jobs . pull the shoes , shatter the remaining linings, remove the 3/8th brass bolts any way that worked. pop the shoe in a vise, and start the clean up. looks clean dig out the straight edge, follow the shoe making sure they were flat. not flat ;possible the shoe would crack when tightened. lighter shoes with 3/16 bolts(mostly trailer shoes) same process. important part == the shoes were tapered 3/4 went to center. watched some one put the blocks on the shoes not paying attention( he didn't clean them either) ..saw his mistake, didn't remove the blocks, took a grinder ;; yep you guess it. sanded the block till drum fit.

JoeH Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Brakes still get done this way, there's a reason there's a core charge on brake shoes. Associated Truck Parts where we get our brake/driveline components relines shoes. They've even relined the shoes for our wheel loader.

MACKS Posted May 12, 2022 Author Share Posted May 12, 2022 The price from Mack was 246 each for the drums and 178 each for relined shoes,or 602 per wheel plus seal,brake kit and s cam kit..very pricy..Some truck parts stores are getting even more for the drums,saw them as high as 350 each..
