The shoes sets are $322 from Authentic classics.  Wheel cylinders are $92 each.  If you can do the work yourself You'll save some money.  Drums are really expensive So just have them turned.

cylinders are readily available

I just had my shoes and drums re lined it wasn't inexpensive  if you need contact info for the shop let me know.

you can save yourself a lot of money doing the job yourself.
