Default Which brakes for 81 Marathon gas 3 wheel?

Looks like I have an 81 gas Marathon. It's far away so I cant measure the drum or confirm if it is "keyed" or get a visual of what they look like. Is there more than one type of brake shoes for these carts? Anyone have an idea of which shoe it is likely to be?

This is what I am seeing mostly: Replacement brake shoe set. 1-3/4" x 7" lining. For E-Z-GO Gas and Electric 1976-81 golf cart with keyed drum. 4/Pkg.

Thanks, Kevin

If you have an 81 you have keyed drums. Next time you're by your cart get the serial number and we can confirm. It should by on the passanger side below the glove box.

I found this in my notes and think it is the # by the glove box you speak of:

OK, I called Blockbuster and by memory it looks like I do not have keyed drums. I remember pulling the drums off and the hub stayed and by the pictures it is not a keyed drum. They suggest the rear end has possibly been changed and I most likely need a different set. I will wait to see them up close before purchasing rather than wasting $50.

I'm not sure what year they switched to the splined hub.
