So I have replaced front wheel bearings and races inner and outers and shoes had my drums measured and they were way over the limit to turn. So I ordered a set of fronts from Summit Racing and they are Bendix brand , I thought allrighty we in business now .Pass. side is on and no problem ,the drivers side however is really pissing me off. Found the first drum to be a bad casting on face of drum causing grinding on backing plate, call Summit and they drop ship another one no problem. All excited and put the drum on and it gives a bad grinding at about 3/4 of a wheel turn S.O.B call Summit and they ship me another one. So I put it on yesterday and yeah you guessed it grinds also not near as bad but still enough to know that its not right. I can back the brake way off and it seems to go away until I drive it and the self adj. work and then they start grinding again. I was setting the brakes close ,hear them drag a tad then back off a turn . it because I never loosened the e-brake cable before adj. or ??? I am only trying to do the fronts and only the driver side is giving me fit's.GOD this has got me baffled
