Brake shoes

I have a 2009 LT with the rear brake shoes that have the center pins in them instead of the horseshoe retainer bracket. Does anyone know a part number for these original rear brake shoes?
UPDATE.......While it was obvious to me that trying to install the new system for brake shoes on a car that was built with the factory retainer pin set up wouldnt work well, i re installed the factory shoes and bled all brake lines today and car is good again. I used a bleeder kit from Auto Zone. Im ordering new shoes from Napa, and staying with the original design.

The auto parts stores do, they changed between 2008-2009.

Yep, my early '08 has the horse shoe retainer bracket.

I'm just guessing here but the rear brake shoes may be the same, just different retainers. You could look on one of our forum sponsors catalog. www.rockauto.com Might even get the oe part #.

I think the e-brake attachment is different.
