<div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">No one can answer what maximum diameter to cut is on Sprite drums. 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! Just never got around to it.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Mike MacLean<br></div><div><br></div>

<br>
I am trying to find a source for some new rear brake drums for my BJ8. <br>
My old drums seem to be out of round, as they drag in certain spots and <br>
turn free in others as I rotate them. I ordered a new pair through a <br>
recommended reseller for M**s and when I mounted them, they also drug in <br>
a couple spots and turned free in others. I tried running them but had <br>
a significant shake in the pedal on braking. They were also so close to <br>
maximum inside diameter that I could not have them turned to true them <br>
up. They were sent back.<br>
<br>
Any other recommended sources I should check to get good quality (round) <br>
drums, that also might have enough metal to them that they could be <br>
turned if need be?<br>
<br>
Thanks for any info<br>
