    Perfect fit for '99 Caravan

    Installing these new drums was the easiest part of rebuilding the rear brakes. I did not have any of the quality problems reported by other reviewers. Perfect fit, easy install, good performance.

        drums were bad, caused a horrible vibration when braking, took the back the local store, swapped for another set, the problem is better, but not corrected, buying drums from another manufacturer to correct

            Replacement drums for our "one-owner", 150K miles, 2000 Chrysler Town & Country Limited (15" wheels) van. These drums were the least-expensive of the two options available; Couldn't really justify cost difference on older vehicle. Only a few hundred miles on drums, so far. Don't hear any "noises", roars, dragging or scraping; Seem to be "true"/round. Primarily city-driving; To-from work, and errands.

                This is the second set of drums from this supplier that have caused vibration upon braking. The last set (4 yrs ago) I tried twice to get a good set, and finally had to have a brand new set of drums turned to take off the high spots.

                      This product performs and installs exactly as expected. No complaints. Good quality product. Just make sure that u spray down the drums with lots of brake cleaner before installing. The do come with a heavy oily residue from the machine shop. This is normal, but clean it off with brake cleaner prior to instillation, or it will create a heavy glaze on your brake shoes. Great product.

                            Purchased two of these and one was machined incorrectly so it would not fit over dust shield lip. So ended up getting a pair elsewhere. I'll still get Wearevers in the future where the budget is tight but hang on tighter to the packaging & receipt. BTW, all these cast parts in this $ range are from China, so blame the company, not the country.

                                I drive for a living, and I need brakes that want fail on me. The drums work and stop a lot of weight. When they very hot they sound bad.
