I have just changed my brake shoes on a R171 SLK. On fitting back the hub, I went to put in the bolt supplied with them and found that it would not easilly go in so I took it out and went to Mercedes and bought 2 new ones. The new ones just went in as they should and on looking at the 2 diiferent bolts together, I could see that they had different threads. I did consider that the bolt would not go back in because of dirty thread and to carry on, but glad I didn't.
I just thought that this might be useful.
