How does one do that...?
Yes, that's what i'm talking about - if the difference is enough 'seating' won't make up for it either. And I want to say if memory serves the mis-match was notable last time I did this.
But at any rate - just how would you go about having them re-arced? Is that something certain machine or brake specialty shops might do?
Do they need to detach the lining from the shoe and somehow flex it a bit to get a better match w/ to the little drum-'lette' radius?
Just curious to hear more about the process (sounds beyond a DIYer) and how to find someone competent to do such a service.
In my state mine would technically not pass. Such testing is variable at best here but this is one of the areas they usually do take the time in some form since it's easy - so basically I've been lucky and/or they've been generous - the fact that everything else is OK and condition is excellent probably helps.
thanks,
