A week or ago, I ordered some brake shoes.



These are for the Jungle bus. Now our emergency brake had stooped working. I have adjusted it many times. Now it is no longer works at all. Okay we need new shoes. I went down to the dealer here, Bahamas Mack. They said they would have to order them. So I said go ahead and order TWO SETS. The reason this way we always have a set ready when needed. I got the call yesterday and the young lady told me my shoes are in. I went down and open one of the boxes. See ONE SHOE. Then look and see how thin the shoe was. I was thinking the shoe would be like a brake shoe on a truck or even a car. 3/4 thick. Not this one. I got back to ALC. Got the old shoes out. Looked and see my shoe has as much pad as the one I just bought. Oh one more thing. I asked for two sets. Thinking for the price of $184.00 for JUST ONE SHOE? Are you crazy? Okay I called the manger there and told me my problem. He said NO RETURNS ON ORDER PARTS. PLEASE HELP ME.He then told me that it was the cable that was worn out. So now I have two shoes I don't need and have to buy a new cable NOW. 
Hopefully the next time I get to the states I can go to the dealership I deal with and ask them for something.
