Re: IML: 56 Center plane Brakes



Sounds to me like you have the wrong shoes.  They used to trim the shoes but anymore they mostly fit with out triming the shoes.

Ok,
 Finally got the the front end cleaned up and I am in the finishing stages of brakes. The new shoes are all bigger than the ID of the drum. Was it the norm to have the shoes ground everytime you had to to a brake job in the 50's? All adjusters are backed off and still no go. How much can I have turned off of the drums? They have never been turned before.  
 
I take all input as always.
