Brake odds and ends I'm not familar with.

[Kate FitchGerald]

Hello,

 I was checking the specs on the wear limit for my
rear brake shoes.   The wear limit is 2mm.  Ok, I got
the calliper and measured it.  However, what is
included in the 2mm measurement.    This was unclear
for an inexperienced person like me.  Is the 2mm only
for the breaking part of the shoe that contacts the
drum?  (The part that wears out.)
Or does the 2mm include the part that wears out (I'll
call it the wearing part) and that metal U strip that
the wearing part is attached too.  (Forgive my use of
words and the confusion, I don't know the terminology
and its hard explaining this in an email
