Can anyone recommend a brake reliner. I have a '53 Dodge that needs
brakes.

Thanks

Ron, if there is a NAPA parts store they can send yours off to be relined.

Kanter offers quick delivery, quality relining on the hard to find brake
parts versus some of the NAPA crap I have seen. Car Quest is at the bottom
of the line when it comes to brake shoes and disc pads.

Thanks guys. I have ordered there brake relining kit 3 times and have
yet to receive it. Whe I call to follow up they have no knowledge of
the order. The local NAPA here in NY does not offer the service for
relining.

I guess I will try Kantor again. Maybe I will get lucky.

Thanks again.

I have a shop here in Fort Wayne I use quite a bit for brake relining.
I have yet to find the shoes they cannot handle.

If you strike out and want to ship them out here, I can get them done
for you.

Or look in the phone book for a commercial brake and clutch rebuilder. There
is bound to be more than one not too far from you.

Dwain is right, look for a commercial brake/clutch rebuilder. If your drums
have ever been turned you need the shoes 'arced' to the drums. New or
relined shoes won't match the arc of your drums.
