[BaadAssGremlins] Re: Front wheel question?????

["djdaveinpa" <djdave@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I had this problem on my first gremlin, 21 years ago. The answer for
me was to get the drums that got bent out-of-round cut, and use lead
spacers, at least I think they were lead. Got them at a local parts
store. I had crager SS rims at the time, and they sat unevenly on the
drum. Dont remove a weight, its there for a purpose.
