I would switch to front discs for safer stops—the stock early or late 3000 setup works great. If you must stick with front drums (the rears work well and needn’t be changed to discs as the front brakes do more of the work anyway), consider switching to Alfin alloy drums, which being lighter, should address the shake you mention. They aren’t cheap, but neither is a swap to front discs. Good luck!<br><br><br><div><a style="font-size:12px" href="https://apps.apple.com/us/app/aol-news-email-weather-video/id646100661" target="_blank">Sent from the all new AOL app for iOS</a><br></div><br><p style="font-size:15px;color:rgb(132,115,255);padding-top:15px;margin-top:0px">On Thursday, February 6, 2025, 1:02 AM, carl and gerry rubino via Healeys <<a href="mailto:healeys@autox.team.net" target="_blank">healeys@autox.team.net</a>> wrote:</p><blockquote><div id="m_6536852512156387550yiv2766926348">
