problems with Napa brake drums? These were Made in China and they were the

I had bad disc and drums from NAPA, O'Reilly's and Autozone. I now ask them
to turn them before I bring them home. Several had high spots that would
have caused excessive vibration and wear even brand new. Have the drums
turned should solve your problem.
