Default Re: Oversized Brake Drums

I just bought a complete rear axle for my '92 f350 dually from a wrecking yard. The linings were worn off long ago and the bare shoes were getting REALLY thin. Thankfully, I had just done a complete brake job with new drums on the axle that I was replacing. Who drives around like that in a loaded flatbed????? In other words, this type of hackery is still being commited today.
