Please, take a look at these brake pads; in particular, at the thickness of the material. We understand that they are not brand new pads and they did pass a freight liner D.O.T inspection. In my opinion, these pads have a couple months left before they must be replaced.
Would you think it would pass a road side D.O.T inspection performed by deputies?

Most look like they're still 50% or better.
x1Heavy and crucar1800 Thank this. -
In the first three photos you can see rust jacking in the center where the linings have begun to separate from the shoe table.Questionable at best.

Omg you are driving with them, replace them with pizza shoes.
Ok I tend to agree with goody, they are questionable.x1Heavy, Lepton1 and crucar1800 Thank this. -
Goodysnap is right. Even high quality brake shoes are not expensive. Why risk some inspector who had a fight with his wife giving you grief, replace them.
x1Heavy and crucar1800 Thank this. -
As long as those are not cracked, they look good to me. You should see the ones on my rear drive! I have a month or more on those and then they are gone.
x1Heavy and crucar1800 Thank this. -
Don;t give a month or more on them winter is here.
Replace em all. The first time she starts to dance on that mr ice and mrs rain with that car under foot, you will be GLAD that all the brakes are reasonably working together.Lepton1 and crucar1800 Thank this. -
