[Bill (archive)]

Hi, I'm wondering if anybody has fitted a pair of brake shoes on a 306 1993 (L) diesel Peugeot, I'm wanting to know how many are listed for this model.?

Two. Bosch (Bendix) or Lucas (Girling).

I was told to look at the master cylinder to find out what type you have, which doesnt follow cos although mine said bendix, the rear part of the car was lucas. Lucas, by all intents and purposes, is actually more expensive than bendix, heaven knows why. I would take the rear drum off and check before buying brake parts!

Cheers! I have the chance to do the job on a car lift so I was hoping to take the shoes with me.

Yeah but be aware that you may not have the correct ones. It basically depends what they had laying around at the factory when they made your car. Hope you got the right ones!

I can find out for you. Let me have your VIN number and I can check at work.

it's stamped on the calipers and on the servo (well on mine it is)
