Week 9 (2/29-3/4) Brake Drum

Got an email this particular week that a beltloader was "not moving forward." Took off the rear end to find that on one side the brake shoes had... well, exploded. There was chunks of pad inside of the drum. Luckily, my partner has a great deal of experience with finding on miscellaneous equipment and identified the brake rear end off of a 70's era Ford F250. After some patience at Napa and careful measuring we were able to install the correct shoes (in the proper position this time mind you, as whoever had done the previous brake job installed them incorrectly). Problem solved, pretty easy week.
