for sale is two set's of aluminum brake drums, 4 brake drums total.
They are in good shape, 2 drums need to be turned just to get the rust off the braking surface NOT because they are worn badly.

$30.00 for all 4 drums.

Located in Camas , WA.

Thanks
Bob

Can you hold on to the drums for a bit? Mine have been turned for the last time and I'm thinking of replacing them very soon. I'm having issues with the rears randomly locking before the fronts, I know it's the star wheel adjustment, but can't get it right for some reason.

Al, you most likely arent getting the brakes tight enough. It's counter-intuitive. Drum brakes are self actuating. The more movement they have, the more cam action there is to lock them into the drum. You want to tighten them up till the drum is locked.. then just back them off a few clicks.

Thanks Brandon. That does seem odd. So they're not tight enough for the self adjusters to work correctly? I still need new drums soon.

By the end of the month, no later. I'll give you a heads up when I can come down. Thanks.
