Is there a real difference in quality between KK Parking brake shoes? I've seen prices from over a $100 for Mopar to as low as $30 for after market shoes. -- I do need to park on hills sometimes, often with a 2500 lb trailer hooked up. So I'm looking for the best. Any advice, experience is welcome.

If you do not wish to pay for the higher priced Mopar rear parking brake shoes, purchase one of the name brands like Bendix, Raybestos, Wagner, Bosch, AC Delco, or Warner and you should be ok.
Just stay away from the cheaper brands like Dorman, Crown, etc...
Some of these name brands can be found on Amazon.

One of the better high end aftermarket brands like PowerStop or the semi-metallic R1 Concept shoes may be a better option.
SummitRacing.com is a good place to peruse some of the different brands. :wink:
