Thank you everyone for you VERY quick responses. My friend ended up deciding to put new linings on himself

Regards,
Phil

Ditto that. Huge difference-no shake-after Alan Hendrix got a hold of both of
my car's read drums.

I
did a balance of the rear drums some years ago now.  The difference on the
road was night and day.

  I also have the
drums skimmed internally and then the linings skimmed
  to give a 100%
contact. I did this to my BN2 for racing years ago. I
  found the resultant
increase in braking efficiency was remarkable.
  I've since done it to my
3000.

  While you're at it, considering having your brake drums externally
 
machined to make them perfectly balanced.  That tip was given to me by
 
Patrick Quinn.
