You may want to turn it just to true it up.  This would also allow you to
see whether it is good or bad from new.

Subject:    OMC Italian brake drums




Hello- as anyone used OMC Italian made new brake drums and had problems ?


I just installed new rear shoes, cylinders, and drums, and I now have a
pulsing brake pedal. I am now going to put one of the old and still good
drums on to see where the problem is.


 I have torqued the drums properly and according to my knowledge a warped
drum is a cause of pulsing. Also can be caused by not tightening the nuts
evenly, or over-torqueing as can happen using a air wrench.
I'm starting to think one of the drums is defective.
