I just purchased a 41 pickup and have only driven the truck around the neighborhood. I've noticed when turning right the front right hub makes a scraping noise. This is a metal on metal scraping noise. I can here a scraping noise when turning left on the left side too, but its not as loud as when turning right. The owner claims he put "Lincoln drum brakes" on the front and the front is dropped 2". I've had this problem on other cars with front drum brakes but it wasn't as loud and I never did figure out where the noise came from. Any ideas what the source may be and how to fix it?
