Still not happy with the braking on my GP. Gave the Raybestos shoes a chance to mate to the drums but not optimal. These are definitely semi metallic, not what I wanted but the description did not make that clear. Braking can be very sensitive and half the time I get a vibration on braking, probably because the shoes do not have the edges chamfered. As the brake shoe assembly swings back n forth inside the drum I believe the vibration comes from the edges contacting the drum, not enough of the actual show.
I just received a set of relined / chamfered shoes from Don and I will install and test these. Really hoping for a better outcome . Ken

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
