Had mine turned at a local foreign auto repair shop for 10 bucks a drum. Some had to be cut deep and one almost just a skim cut. Now one of my slave cylinders in the front is leaking and soaking the shoe. Car pulls hard to the left when the brakes are applied. Could be dangerous if you are not ready for it. Have all new cylinders to install that I bought from Ed back in 2005!
