Juice, looking for diagram of front brakes, there is a small spacer at bottom of shoes on one wheel. I think is missing on other side, and will make one if needed. I am in the process of replacing wheel cylinders and shoes on front of truck. Cannot get 15 x 3.5 shoes anymore, so had to have them re lined. Same issues with brakes on this truck as many others, need to pump once to get a good solid pedal. Have spent too many hours under this truck working on brakes.

Single or dual cylinders per wheel?  Manual or auto adjusters?
