R rally 1 Senior Member Mar 9, 2018 #1 With all the talk about cast iron brake drums, do any of the vendors offer a replacement STEEL drum?
C Charlie Stephens Well-known member Mar 9, 2018 #3 The cast iron drums are better. They are thicker and dissipate heat better. A steel drum (unless it was a different design) would be a step back. Charlie Stephens
