Parking brake shoe friction material thickness?

[kad]

Ok, not quite your usual parking brake question I think, but...

Does anyone happen to know what the friction material thickness is on a new set of Mopar parking brake shoes is?

Note: This is for part comparison purposes, so opinions on when to replace them, what brand to use, etc realllllllly not needed. Thanks.

Part #68001472AB

Do you have a different set that won't clear thinking due to pad thickness? Not as though they should wear out. Mine rust and the pads rot off long before they ever wear out.

Most parking brake shoes new are around 3mm.

Nope, I bought the truck as a CPO and I was curious as to how worn they are from new.

When I bought mine CPO the dealer did all rotors and brakes pads and even the emergency brakes shoes.

The brakes on mine were definitely not done, just the tires.

Surprisingly to me this dealer used to be horrible. They must of finally seen the light because now I cant say enough good things about there service dept and believe me I'm the guy who will rip them apart if needed. They really have did a 180 on service and such.
