I bought new brake shoes for my 200SX...they wont grab, and stop me, it's like I have ice cubes for brake shoes, I have lots of pressure in my lines. No matter how hard I pull, it wont stop me as fast as it used to.

Yes I did sand the new shoes a bit, I cleaned the brake drum, sanded it too, I dont know whats wrong. Please help.

Some brands of brake shoes & pads take some breaking in befor they grab like the old ones.Take your time & don't over heat them.Daryl
