Author Topic: yet another brake question robertrwalsh ¯ Member # 10479 posted                                 turns out the front drums on my 65 6cyl were both badly distored. i got brand new drums. i am having trouble getting the hubs to "seat" in them. i thought i would just cinch them in with the lug nuts but this isn't working so hot. do the hubs have to be pressed into the drums? thanks Posts: 73 | From: stockton, ca | Registered: Nov 2010  |  : JohnB Tech Moderator Member # 969 posted                              Yes, drums must be pressed onto the hubs.

I though I could maybe get by cinching them in with the lugs, but it didn't work. Now I know it wasn't supposed to work. Back to CBX. Posts: 73 | From: stockton, ca | Registered: Nov 2010  |  :
