In my last post I clarified and verified the mistype I had made
. I did not contact the Kanter Packard department as I was a bit irritated the shoes didn't fit as expected. I knew what I had to do to make it work. I thought I had purchased what were fitted parts for my car.
I'm certainly not here to bust Kanter, and I will need your help in the future - maybe you can make it all better then
. Remember I took the measurements as you requested. I do appreciate the offer for the adjusters, but that doesn't technically resolve the problem. The emergency brake fork needs room, as do the wheel cylinder posts, and the shoes are on the car now.
The original post was for me to verify other shoes were like this, and to help other folks know they'll need more time to do the job.
Please let me know if there's anything I can do.
Peace,
Rich

Yes we were aware of what you had to do to correct the issue to make the shoes work(using the dremel) at the time and the thickness of the B.S. webbing, but this was our way of trying to help by offering new adjusters. Had you tried contacting our Packard department when you discovered the issue with the brake shoes?
Thanks
