Hi Gang, I had rear brakes done for another listmember. During other work was being done by another shop, he is being told that the new rear brakes need replacement because of uneven wear as evidenced by the photos below. My contention is the shoes just have not work to conform with the shape of the drum. That is also what the shop which did the work is saying. http://picasaweb.google.com/syncro/1986VWVanagonAdventurewagen?authkey=Gv1sRgCKu_9rPlhMWcRg#5323372776637120850 http://picasaweb.google.com/syncro/1986VWVanagonAdventurewagen?authkey=Gv1sRgCKu_9rPlhMWcRg#5323372788583365362 What do you folks think? Something amiss or just shoes just bedding themsleves down? Shoes, drums, wheel cylinders were all replaced. You opinion will be geatly appreciated. Thanks, BenT
