Default Re: Comprehesive howto for brakes?

One of the biggest improvements I made to my brakes after checking and replacing any worn parts and shoes and adjusting was to replace the steel drums with cast iron drums.

Most 90 yo steel drums have been turned one too many times (even states in the Service Bulletins NOT to turn them) which is one of the causes of brake fade.
