Brakes sound like a horn

Thanks Road Trip. I'll do my best.

How long have the new shoes been in? I wonder if they need more time to scrub the old deposits off and finish bedding in?

Simply replace the rear drums

The way I understand it that's a massive crapshoot these days. Not uncommon to get the unbalanced and untrue.

I agree but it’s better than ruining new shoes with the old drums.

Depends on the condition of the old drums.

Well he already said it’s making nasty noises so it’s obviously eating up the new parts…

I have had the new shoes on for right at 1,000 miles. It started a couple hundred miles ago. It stops fine just loud when this happens. Only happens at low speeds just before the truck completely stops. I'll see if I can get them resurfaced and if that don't work I'll see what new ones cost..

Gear oil on the drums and shoes?

Sorry if this has already been covered. I have not followed the whole thread.
Did the metal to metal contact between the shoes and backing plates get grease? Are there worn divots that need to be welded and smoothed?
