Default Dead Drums and Shoes


These have trued to dust...
Can anyone recommend the least expensive way to get refurbished drums and shoes?

Check junk yards? I imagine they'd be pricey from a parts store. Autozone qouted me 43 bucks a piece for rotors, I just turned them at work to true them up. (so what if they are underspec! <fingers crossed they dont collapse&gt

I did a whole entire brake job on my 88 about 2 years ago for about $200. that was pads, rotors, calipers, shoes, drums, wheel cylendars, spring kit. it was the cheapest parts possible, and they still look pretty good.

When it comes to cast parts always check your local parts store.Dodge has used these rear ends forever.You may find it cheaper to buy new.They can buy this stuff off shore for a couple dollars a pound. I picked up drums and rotors for $35 a piece.

Local parts store for me is NAPA in Half Moon Bay. They want $60 a 10" drum. I know I can do better than that.

Looks like they do have cheap rear drums, but there is shipping. Too bad they don't have rear shoes!
