Really? Im glad my new car doesn't have drums. I always thought drums were a royal pita. Harder to take apart, maintain, and replace. I always had to tighten mine down in my Bonne every few months or else they wouldn't even do any braking. Although I never did learn the in and outs of how they work and how to replace them, I watched some of my classmates in my auto class try working on them and said forget it
