Re: [Chrysler300] Re:disk brakes for 57's

Hey Guys/Gals:
 
    I happen to be the owner of a brake shoe  grinder/lathe (whatever one 
calls them) with which I am more than willing to  part.  Major problem is that 
the damned thing weighs (or seems to weigh)  100 pounds or more - not something 
easily shipped.  In any event, if you  want to buy it, and you live somewhere 
near New Jersey, or you want to pick it  up, please let me know.  Also, figure 
out what you would like to pay for  it.  Anything reasonable will be accepted.

Now,  after 50 years, we have virtually lost the machine shop ability to arc 
grind  new linings to the size of the drums but there are still shops that do  
it.  This fitting of shoes to drum is one of two critical concerns with  
those brakes.  The second is that far too often, in the name of saving a  few 
bucks, low quality shoe linings have been purchased and they simply don't  grab.
