The fronts seem to have went fine but the rears have given me a fit. Everything disassembled and reassembled in what I would deem a painless manner, until I went to put the tire back on the rear. I tightened the lugs and all of a sudden the wheel became stupid hard to rotate. With just the drum slid on it rotates freely so I ran the lug nuts down on just the drum and it froze up just like when I put the tire on. The other side did the same thing. The old drum rotates just fine. I guess the new bendix drums aren’t machined right, something is off with them.
