Re: New Drums ???

Adjust them as far out as you can put the drums on. bleed, test drive it around the block. You might have to remove the drums another time to adjust them once more after the brakes get what i call seated. I caution you on your new drums. Mine were made in Canada and one was out of true. After a week one got cherry red after only a block. I had to turn that drum. Sorta pissed me off to turn a new drum.
