Rear Brake linings

Hi Guys, just chasing some rear brake linings for my RML, they are still ok, but I want to get a set so I can have them handy when the time comes to change them. Are there any other AEC's that use the same linings, as there may be limited availability over here if I knew this information. Thank you in advance.

My bus number (if any): RM1103, MB 306,

Re: Rear Brake linings

They are still readily available here. I have some of the original linings available but fronts only.

New linings are of the new material. regent V uses the same linings, maybe lots of other vehicles too.

My bus number (if any): RML2532

Re: Rear Brake linings

So where abouts do I source them in the UK please Roy? And will they ship overseas??
