The ones I'm looking are dexter and have white wires and the magnets, after looking closer are not a "true round" and apparently according to Al-ko will work. Its the whole assembly in one piece.
I was always under the impression that Dexter was top of the line, yet Al-KO sell the same assembly for almost twice as much...Is there THAT big a difference?
Map-guy, the pads are down pretty low. Drums looked good last time I checked. Now that I have the 2013 RAM with the improved exhaust brake, once I install these brakes, should be good till the walls of the RV fall off.
How thin? How much heat checking (cracks). The heat checking is a real issue. As the lining bond to metal shoe fails if thin and lots of heat checks. My concern with thin linings is heat fade resistance, when you actually need the brakes.
