hi jonE,
the two types of 1 1/4 are different shoes. they dont fit each other
the problem if it is a problem, is the earlier type 1 1/4 made 1933 to 1934. will fit all cars 1927 to 1934. in dirrect replacement of 1 inch shoes. so because so many people have used them for earlier cars trying to get better brakeing. this type of 1 1/4 are now very hard to find. and when you do they are usually very expensive to buy.
because the latter 1 1/4 shoes only fit the oval backplated stubs. LESS people use them, so they are sort after LESS. (more of them about). hence when they come up for sale, they are usually very cheap.
supply and demand.
thanks tony
