Time to do the rear drums-a few questions
Time has come to rebuild my rear drums on my C10 Panel, but I have a few questions.
I have 11" drums and 2" wide shoes-I've read that there are some drums that take 2 3/4" shoes. What is the difference, besides the obvious? Is bigger better? Is it worth the trouble to track down these drums? My existing rear drums are OE, as far as I can tell, that seem to have been turned once. I also have a new set that came off the front that only have maybe 3000 miles on them, so I have that option also. Wheel cylinders. I have no problem rebuilding the ones I have, but they have a 1" bore, and again-is bigger better? I see there are some with larger diameter bores. I guess my overall question is-If I use rear drums, what is the best combo of parts to use? Does that make sense? I'm not talking about mix & match, more like is there a better set up from another truck that might be better on my Panel that OE?
