So not all parts are made equal. Here we have the parking brake shoes on a discovery 3. Well known weak point on these cars with issues jamming failing etc. This one had a on going issue of park brake playing about and monthly needing adjustment. We’ve now found why. Wrongly made friction lines on the old(apec) shoes vrs the new genuine shoes. Both make to oe iso specs but the old has a larger lining which affects how it works look as last two pics to see the fault. All fitted and working as should and hopefully the end to this issue.
