    I've gathered nearly all the parts for my brakes, except something called "shoe guide plates". Can anyone tell me if these are available, or if I even need them? Can I just use a washer? The guys at the FLAPS are clueless. See the areas circled in red, the little diamond-shaped doohickeys...

    Are they available? Or made of unobtanium?

    I found a local Jeep dealer that actually knew what I was talking about.:shock: They had one in stock, and ordered the other three for me. $4.95 apiece :mad:, but at least I'll have all the parts now. Saves me the grief of calling and driving all over looking for them I guess.
