ladies & gents,

I have to get brake drums and shoes on both sides. they're the 10 x 2.5" brakes.

Is Duralast 10" drums ok? anyone have problems with these?

The fact is, I can get Duralast 10" drums for $49.99 at AutoZone. And
I called Pep Boys and all they had was Raysbestos for $89.99 a drum. That seems a tad
high for a drum. ( they had cheaper drums but only in 9" size and not in 10" )

I am basically looking for a recommendation on a good OEM replacement drum. One that
will last about 5 years. or around 50,000 mile

p.s. are Duralast shoes good? its a daily driver truck and mostly in town driving.
and i can get shoes for $12.99 from Autozone.

if anyone has other alternatives for a good priced ( below $65 ) 10" brake drum, send
some info pls.
