So up for grabs for free are the drums, shoes and springs. There's loads of life left in the shoes and the drums have only got a tiny wear lip on them so even if one is oval it should come right with a skim, these are free for collection from Worcester.
I also have a set of NOS genuine Volvo brake shoe springs for the rear brakes, £10 collected or plus postage.

360 rear drums are 9" so different to the 340 8" drums ...
300 rear brakes last forever .. our first 1980 343 did 250,000 miles on its original and so has our 1988 343 although not that kind of mileage are still like new .
