The bad news is, you still can't honk-on the brakes doing 40 knots. If you do,
you will probably crack the drum. Guess how I know?
I keep everything adjusted up snug and try to only apply the brake below 20
knots.
* Inspect all parts for cracks or
defects. One of the four iron drums
had lateral cracks near the crenelations that lock it into the
aluminum wheel half. A used replacement wheel half had to be secured
(thanks, JJ).
