I am not real hip on grinding on the wheel. I was
thinking about grinding the brake drum weights.
I talked with the guy I bought them off of and he said
that he had no such problem. I think if he had the
10" brakes, then he would have no clearance problems.
The overlap is about 1/2" to 3/4"....the new drums
that I got, the weights are hugh compared to the
weights on the old drums, but the wheels still hit the
weights on the old drum as well.
I was thinking that maybe Moser Engineering or
somebody similar....could use different (read thinner)
weights and rebalance the drum....not sure though.
