I am not sure exactly what you are saying but i have purchased both L&R e-brake cables for a 4x4 (twice).

So when you do put on the 3" shoes do you have to get new drums? I would think the 2.5 pads will have worn a groove. I have personally never had mine off to see

Probably, but it's a good idea to turn or replace the drum anyway, which should resolve that problem. Before I took them off, it is what I did to my rig...Mark

I have the hardware (spring) kit for the d70.

Thanks! We have an account at Napa in Lloyd. At least the price is a bot less then retail. I will be making some calls on the self adjuster kit today.

The only parts that have been troublesome to find are the anchor bolt spacers and the like, its the little bolt that the large e-brake lever is held on by. I tried everywhere to get them, even the dealership said they are no longer in stock

rockauto is not too bad for shipping if you can order enough of the parts from 1 location. i know i have ordered $600 worth of parts from rock auto for $300 and that included shipping and taxes.
