Any auto parts store can get them. All your gonna find is the made in China ones. Wagner, Raybestos, Bendix are all made in China now. Wagner was the most recent to succumb to overseas manufacturing. I checked all over awhile back for hours on the internet and ended up going to went to O'riely's

Well I guess I will go to Oreilys then. Dang not much on the web about them suprisingly. Most of it is disc brake conversions. Thanks for the help guys...

I wonder if that is per drum prices or a pair? Looks like it may be about $150 to replace the brakes. That is cool I guess. I'm gonna try to get this done this summer. They have been grinding for about 5 years now...HAHHA...
