ANTI-SQUEAK FRONT BRAKE SHOES.

We are very anxious to get a report on the behaviour of the anti-squeak brake shoe (Hancock Type).

A number of these have been fitted to Trials Cars, and we believe a number of sets have been fitted on customers cars. We should like to know whether there has been any case of complaint of squeaking after these shoes have been fitted.
