Which brakes? Which rig? Need the details. Because the w463s use disk brakes and the w460s use drum. Also if you are ordering parts, make sure to get brake parts for either AMG or none AMG, because they can be different.

Ron,

I would use a company the specializes in relining brakes like this one, which is near you.

http://www.industrialbrakeclutch.com/

Ask them for a price on relining when you provide the material and rivets. They *should* be able to bond the friction material as well. This is one that I found by doing a quick Google search, so there me be others that are even closer to you.

We have this done here in Atlanta for less than $20 per shoe. Doing it yourself is not worth the hassle or the mess.

Good luck,

Hi Sean: I was able to find a brake service company here in Brooklyn to
attach the rivets to the four pieces of material at a total cost of $32.
If it is of any use to others, the name is A & A Brake Service Company,
224 3rd Avenue, Brooklyn, N.Y. 718 - 624 - 4488.

My 463 has rear drums.

Would they be using OEM parts or after market? Also any idea about the warranty?
