Default Re: New cast iron brake drum rubs on shoes

I replaced my drums with cast iron drums and when I installed them they bottomed out on the brake shoe. I checked my original drums and the inside face was a 90 degree angle to brake shoe area. The cast iron drum was rounded I had to put them back on the lathe and cut that area out. This solved the problem. This was front and rear drums.
