Re: front brake grabbing (locking)

In my experience a new front drum should be mounted to the hub and checked for out of round before it leaves the parts store. Just a little bit of tolerance buildup can cause an "out of round" condition. I'd recommend that you mark the drum and hub so that whenever you remove the drum from the hub, that it goes back on in the same orientation.
