Today I rotated my tires and looked at my brakes as long as I had the wheels off. The fronts were just fine, but when i pulled off the drum on the back there was a groove right in the center of the track where the shoe rubs. The shoes have a groove right in the center that goes the length of the shoe(on both shoes). I'd never seen anything like this so I searched around and every replacement shoe looked like a regular full width one. The groove in the shoes looks too perfect to have broke or worn off. I'm just curious if anyone else has seen this and if it's normal. They weren't making any noises or vibrations, so i just put it all back together. The shoes were fine otherwise. I have a 8.25 rear on a 2001 Classic if that helps anyone. Thanks!
