How Should Brake Drums Be Machined on a Drum Lathe on 2000 Dodge Dakota?

Brake drums may be turned on a lathe, the initial cuts should be 0.12 - 0.20 mm or less, to avoid taper, and the final cuts must be between 0.025 and 0.038 mm, to give a smooth finish. A drum should be mounted securely with a damper strap to minimize vibrations. Change the drum in case machining is too large.
