Default Brake Shoes

I'm planning to upgrade the rear wheel cylinders on my 96 1500 this weekend and might as well replace the shoes while I have everything apart. Vehicle runs a lot of fire calls and tows a boat, so I'm looking for something that will definitely hold up to a fair amount of abuse. Looking at RockAuto, there is quite the choices, but I'm looking for someone that has a particular shoe that they trust and would recommend.

Thanks

I like Wagner Thermo quiet pads and shoes. Our dodge has them on the front and will get them on the rear when I get a chance. My daughter's 87 chevy has them front and rear. I like Wagner's hardware also. The brake adjusters seem better quality then others.

I used the 1 1/16 cylinder for a dodge. It really mad a huge difference. I'm going to put them on my daughter's chevy also.
