Well it has been awhile, but I picked up most of my chassis and suspension parts from them----No complains---besides they had great catalogs and covers----

I just installed a complete front end rebuild kit and numerous brake parts on my Dart Swinger and I am very happy with all the parts.Good prices and quality of parts were very good.

If I go with metallic brake shoes (PST's "Metalli-GRIP" kit) do I need to have the drums prepped specifically for them? I read in a manual that if you use metallic shoes then the drums need to be 'dressed' for use with the metallic shoes.



Thanks,
