I had close to 5000 miles on the brake shoes on my Model A with 40 Ford brakes. The drums were getting thin so I got new drums from Sacramento Vintage Ford. They would go on if clocked right but would not turn. They were out of round big time. As I recall it took almost an eighth to get them round. Yes, the shoes were adjusted as far back as possible. The bottom line is that many if not most repro drums are out of round and need to be turned to make them right.
