I have new non-asbestos front linings on the Carib and they squeal more than the old asbestos linings, nature of the beast I'm told. It was pretty much minimized by keeping a tighter adjustment to the drum (after the shoes were arc ground to match the drum diameter). But as has already been suggested, adjusting the eccentric anchor pin is the most neglected part of brake service and should be at the top of your list.
