This is wrong. It's true that the older ones had press drums, and semi floaters had slip off. But I have one from a van that is a full float and slip drums. Not sure the rhyme or reason why some got pressed and some slip. I had one from a 93 slip, and one that was in my 97 that was pressed. Not always a brake thing either...
