I see on a few of the vendors site's that they sell brake shoe linings and rivets.
Anybody know of someone that can still do this ? Or am I living in the past?

BOOHOO/BRAKE SHOE: Rivets and such:
Another option is bonding but that is not suitable for individual use as the agents are expensive and not available in small quantity. I looked into this several
years ago and did set up simple jigs/etc. to bond brake lining to cleaned /prepared shoes. It has worked well and no bonding failures in the past 10 years +/-
Questions, feel free to ask.
