After rebuilding the rear Huck brakes on my 49 a while back I finally got around to turning the drums today. Like day and night. More shoe contact and no more pulsating brake pedal.

Thats a part people usually overlook if the drums arent scored. I usually have mine turned or at least checked for roundness when doing a brake job.
Like you said,,,,,a difference like day and night.

Front change over is going slow. Have everything apart and almost cleaned up but otherwise having too much fun driving now that the sun is here to want to stop and do it.
