Took the drum to my friend at his machine shop and he said is not fixable. "Get another one"  . What options do I have? (very unlikely I will find one around here). Anyone reproducing 33-34 drums? Will 32 or 35 fit with no adaptations? I believe mine is stock. Please provide some suggestions. Thank you. Manuel

I can not see how the crack in the drum would have any effect on the wheel wobbling. Possibly you have more than one problem? Loose lug nuts or slop in the hub to axle fitment?
