Started to replace the rear brake cylinders today. Removed the R/H rear drum and found the rear brake lining had become detached and I don't have a spare set of shoes on hand. Does anyone know the part number and a recommended supplier?

Here you go- just give your local Motor Factors the number and they will cross reference it. Rear brakesOr BHM always have some in stock BHM in stock. Delphi/Lockheed LS1311 Springs etc

Try these brake part numbers, http://www.talkmorgan.com/ubbthread...rad-models-brake-part-numbers#Post613595I have used these parts recently and they were identical to the original parts I took off, so I can say from experience they are correct. You can use the numbers to cross reference.

Make sure the registration on the cup washers on the steady springs are good as when I replaced my cylinders and shoes a few years back one of them let go and locked the back axle solid, luckily I was backing out of my garage at the time it might not have been so funny at speed, nearly a Plus Six moment  .

Thanks to all for your assistance, parts are now on order. After scouring the internet using every cross reference imaginable I could only find one vendor in North America who carried the +8 shoes. Thank goodness.

found these on the dreaded ebay
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Brake-Shoes-GS6067-TRW-Set-GBS610-GBS651-GBS800-TKC294-9968570-Quality-New/233528889193?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649
they claim to fit post 93 plus 8, mine is 94 but none of the part numbers seem to match???
link doesn't work so ebay item number 233528889193

If it is only the shoe lining that is worn or damaged then it might be worth typing in " BRAKE SHOE RELIGHNING" into your search engine... ?
Good luck in your search.
