Rock Auto has rear brake shoes for $12.02 for a set of four and caliper kits for $7.00. Seems like a better deal -- thats what I used -- shop around people........

That's why I can't sell parts anymore! I just thought it was winter coming on.

I noticed that there is a statement that cast iron cylinders last longer than aluminum ones.  Not true, both will corrode with time and lack of fluid changes and maintenance.  Both need sleeving to be corrosion resistant.  Many of the cylinders that fail a rebuild are due to the pistons which corrode under the seal causing a leak.  So having a cast-iron brake cylinder with aluminum pistons has as much or more of a chance to corrode because of dissimilar metals. Brass sleeving of an original brake cylinder, although more costly will last the test of time.  Switching to a cup type seal to ride against the piston will remove almost all chances of failure due to internal cylinder corrosion.
