Last set of Lincoln brakes a friend purchased from Speedway were Boling Bros; but the drums and hubs they sell are Speedway's own product. '

Has this changed?

Now a couple guys I have talked to were satisfied with Speedway's hubs and drums; but
I have read of problems.

If you do get some Speedway drums it does pay to check the thickness at several points around the perimeter to ensure the casting was properly centered when machined.

Really waiting to hear if anyone has tried Speedway's Buick style drum.

Speedway's & ECI disc kit that uses the F-150 rotor is heavy (and big); never thought of it on the last kit we put on; but it would have been interesting to weigh the stuff and compare to a set of Lockheeds and drums.
