davehummell Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 HI, I found out I had a frozen brake shoe on the rear axle and when I got it tore down someone has changed the spider over to later shoes that has the pins and set bolts . I wonder why someone would do that? I know it was later as the abs pickup was still attached.My truck is a 58 b model Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Back In Black Pulling Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Maybe they changed the rear and used old brakes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h67st Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 I've seen that done when someone had a bad rear end and they had a good axle sitting out back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6368 Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Many people would prefer to have the later style spiders as it makes having maxi brakes easier. Rotochambers are expensive. Plus you can get modern shoes anywhere and much cheaper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
