Brake shoe contact on edge only
#2
Hi Shane,
Most conversions use the original Austin cast iron Girling type drums not MM ones.
Suggest you measure the inside dia. of the drum. Should be 7".
Often the reason for the wear you describe is there are high spots on the shoe due to it not being a matched curve to the drum. Most shoes bed in. Some of us have home made devices that assist in doing this. The leading edge of the shoes may benefit from some dressing back.
Some photos would be helpful.
