Brake Drum Balancing:

Did you know that all Healey brake drums are not balanced? We have not found one yet that did not need balancing. They are ranging from as little as 1/2 oz. to 6 1/2 oz. out. The way you check this is as follows:

Take off your brake drums and turn them over. You will notice that the center has been machined off center. You can tell by looking at the wall thickness in the center. One will be thinner than the other; this will throw your drums out of balance. If you have tried everything else and still have the dreaded 55-60 MPH "scuttle" shake, this is probably the problem. We can cure this for you with our Brake Drum Balancing Service. Call today, (336) 852-8909.
