Sunnliner/ gracemur brake shoes desperately wanted.....

[iloverust]

require part numbers for new brake pads
i have a 1962 Gracemur Sunny
The hubs are a holden HT type 5 stud
I took the hubs into ISP and they have told me they are the old 8 inch type that no one makes any more?
They also said i have no chance of finding brake pads to suit, and id need to buy new 9-10 inch backing plates and hubs.
After looking at the 4x mounting bolts on the new backing plates which are 73mm to centre while the old mounting holes are around 65mm to centre ( bolts are in a square)
this would mean i need to modify the existing axels and mounting plates to suit new wheel bearings and backing plates mounting holes....
Before i go to all this trouble just to put a set of brake shoes in i want to make sure what ISP are telling me is correct as it will cost $300- $400 for this ...
Any help or tips would be greatly appreciated 
thanks

Ive used these guys before. Not sure if it will suit yours but they do have 8" listed. Worth a call or email.

No dramas! If they cant help you, Make sure you also ask about re bonding your shoes.
