if the linings are loose on the rivets, or if the
bonded linings are separating from the shoe.

the lining thickness by determining how
much lining is left before the tops of the
rivet heads will begin to score the drum.

brake shoe from the side, and measure
the thickness of the remaining lining
before the metal brake shoe begins to
score the drum.
