On checking my brake squeak

[ttwlr]

Ok thank you
Could the uneven shoes cause the squeaky brakes ?
Will check the drum with my digital calliper.

Good to hear,
I'll add brake shoes to the list
Searching net for some mintex seen Morris mini ones but not MM
How do I find out part number for front shoes, seller online asked if I know it

Well, original numbers were AJA 5058 for 7" Drum and latter cars 8" Drum were 8G 8767, but I'm not sure how well recognised those numbers would be these days.

[svenedin]

The Lockheed Delphi code for 7” REAR shoes was LS1001. I’ll check my records for other part numbers.

The seller on eBay selling mintex shoes have a fair few but unfortunately said nothing available for mine, So I need to find some other brand that's as good

[svenedin]

Do you need the 7" or 8" front shoes? ESM 8" branded shoes are Apec and they are good linings.

I think they are 7" it's a 58 morris

[ttwlr]

Mike, Although new,They been on the car a long time now but not used on road until recently, it was my first morris I've had and rushed into buy bits without and knowledge

[ttwlr]

My shoes are 7"
ESM said can't get Lockheed rear cylinders for my car anymore, are Apec wheel cylinders good ?

Just for information, the MIntex code for 8" FRONT brake shoes code was MLR4. Very good if you can find them.

So would that mean for 7" I will need MLR3 ?

I don't know but the Mintex code for 7" REAR shoes is MLR2 so what you suggest is very plausible

I see these Mintex 7” X 1 1/4” Brake Shoes MLR3 LB73 Austin, Coventry Climax, Morrison
But sellers unsure about fitting, says it mentions Morris but nothing about minors
