Are you buying drums or shoes (or both)?

Subject: [FWDLK] what brand of brake drums do you recommend

Hi again, all.  Now that I got the Radial vs. bias thread going, I figure I'd start a Drum mfgr thread. :-)

 

Need to buy some 11" x2 1/2" (1970's) rear drums.  Here is what I found.  Dunno how many are REALLY unique or just made by the same manufacturer.  Anyone know or have a preference?  Seems to me Bendix or Raybestos would be the top of the list.

 

Bendix $66.28

 

Aimco $64.99

 

Raybestos $58.99

 

Wearever $54.28

 

Napa United  $71.49
