Brake Drum Adjustment - New drums
So the old drum had a access port on the Drum itself... Usually see that on the backing plate.
New drum does not have it. Do you guys do something different? cut a hole in the backing plate?

Re: Brake Drum Adjustment - New drums
I kind of wondered the same thing. I thought of just putting a hole in the drum like the original, can't understand why there isn't one in the backing plate.

I had the same issue, so I took it to a local machine shop and they put holes in both drums for $20CAN.

Re: Brake Drum Adjustment - New drums
I thought about that. Did you notice it out of balance after that though?
