Same drum as before. There is a kink or dent at the centerbore of the drum. I do not think this warrants replacement as the drum sits flush on the rear hubs anyway. The same muffler shop trying to persuade them the brakes had uneven wear thought that this makes the brake "warped" for some reason. Please advise pro or con if you think this affects the brakes at all. I personally would just smack this area back flat if it was just a cosmetic issue. http://picasaweb.google.com/syncro/1986VWVanagonAdventurewagen?authkey=Gv1sR gCKu_9rPlhMWcRg#5323907770763474354 http://picasaweb.google.com/syncro/1986VWVanagonAdventurewagen?authkey=Gv1sR gCKu_9rPlhMWcRg#5323907784505415266 http://picasaweb.google.com/syncro/1986VWVanagonAdventurewagen?authkey=Gv1sR gCKu_9rPlhMWcRg#5323907798858875442
