Continued working on the roadster prep but nothing ever goes easy, right? Removed the front tires, my f-100 front and removed hub to repack the bearings. Passenger side went well but the driver side drum had an external weight that interfeared with the wide five adapter as it would not go flat to the drum. The f-100 front drum brakes were the same from 53-66 and I bought the newest drums when I first built my roadster. Fortunately I had another original pair of drums and put that one on instead. But, another problem cropped up as the newer drum was very thick and the lug nuts only screwed on half way, but the older is thinner and allows the lugnuts to go on all the way. So, got the other drum and prepped it to be installed but ran out of time.
