  1. I just replaced my rear brake shoes, drums, cylinders and springs.. truck is an 05 SS with drum brakes... I have already adjusted my brakes until they are barely touching the drums.. my drum go in and come off very easily... every time I go for a drive I keep hearing squeaks and my brake pedal feels mushy and soft.. worst part of all it seems that my shoes are dragging on the drums because they get really hot and I get burnt brake smell.. I double checked everything after install.. what could it be?

  2. I’ve also heard mixed opinions.. one thing for sures is that WILL NEED bodywork to make it look up to your standards... some people are happy with the way it comes Pricewise $$ and don’t mind the work involved to make it work.. others are not so pleased with how they come out... I bought a fiberglass wing a few years back and honestly I didn’t think it was that good of a product.. the thing was really cheaply made and of really low quality that I didn’t even messed with it and decided to sell it... then a few years later I came across an original one and the fit and quality were far more superior than the replica one... but of course I had to pay more for it 

  3. ? good to know your issues are fixed... I’m on a 4-6 drop on my 2wd SS, so didn’t have issues with a 1pc driveshaft since mine has the 2pc.. I am also running McGaughys helper bags and they do make a difference in towing and ride.. I will never run a drop kit without helpers from now on
