Re: front brake grabbing (locking)

The first couple of times I was told I better have new drums turned before install I thought thats just crazy. New parts dont need turned. Two mechanics told me I’d be pulling them off right away. They were right. It is nuts. New parts made to spec should not need finishing before install. Period. It was explained to me after manufacturing they are just dumped in a metal bin and cooled that way so they aren’t stacked neatly and tend to warp some. Sounds bout right.
