Brakes shoe spring washer won't fit

jackson4212 · Aug 26, 2017

I bought brake shoes from AutoZone and the spring washer won't fit. The spring washer fits in the original and the washer fits in and in a RockAuto part I bought before but it doesn't fit in the AutoZone part. Is this a common issue or do you think they gave me the wrong brake shoes? I attached sim photos

They gave you the wrong part. The parts circled in blue are also different from your original part.

Rockauto's looks closer to OEM.

Just drill it to the size you need, it won't compromise anything.
With parts from chain stores they are made for a very wide variety of applications so they may fit better on some vehicles than others, a little persuasion goes a long way. :superhack:
