Hi all, has anybody fitted EBC shoes to their Mog?
Was there any noticable improvement over standard on the rear?
Thanks, Andy.

What are EBC shoes? Is that the make?

Obviously they do discs and pads etc - but not sure they do 'shoes' ?? http://www.ebcbrakeshop.co.uk/?gclid=CM ... 3godeFWYHQ

Used to be able to get VG95 linings for shoes - but I suspect they are all long gone now.

I think the quality of the EBC ones will be in a different league to the std offerings, which are desperate. The linings are so rough cut that we had to re profile the last set we bought.
ESM sell the EBC shoes and for the small increase in price I'll be trying them from now on, and maybe stocking up if they are good enough.

Ahhh - very interesting! But - I don't see any mention of this on the ESM website - or are they their 'standard' offering ? Any info on the relative coefficient of friction of 'standard' against EBC offering? And - I wonder if they do them in 9" diameter........

Well found! But rear shoes not known for high wear rate!
That seller has over 3000 pages of parts on ebay.................

Well found again - although 7" for the early front drums.....

could not find any for the later 8 inch

I have green stuff pads on the front as it is a Ford conversion, these are awesome and give little in the way of brake dust. The part number for the rears is ebc 6237. These seem to be a kind of generic pattern that will fit a few vehicles.
Thanks Jonathan you have confirmed what I suspected.

hi, so are these EBC brake shoes like a softer compound shoe for better braking?

sory if silly question.

They probably aren't softer just made from a material that has better friction characteristics.

Maybe not! Do EBC make any special claim for these shoes ? Do they sell them as 'premium' shoes (as they do Green/black/red etc disc pads) - or are they simply their standard supply?
