anyone running Duralast parking brake shoes?
My stocks got soaked in gear oil (had a blown axle seal) so I'm looking to replace them. I'd like to take care of it this weekend and Autozone is the only place local with them in stock:

Well since no one else chimed in, I'd like to keep talking to myself/add for anyone searching this in the future that the shoes seemed to be fine. My only complaint is that they came in a box loose, with no padding protecting them or anything. Literally just rattling around in the box, but luckily no damage.

Also, the Duralast hardware kit for the brakes was not worth the $20. Very inferior parts, such as the star adjuster being significantly shorter than stock and overall flimsier stamped pieces (clips, cups..) so I ended up re-using most of the stock parts except springs.

AutoZone is, and will continue to be, my last choice for parts because of crap like this.
