Re: ‘67 drum brake springs...replace ‘em?

I no longer replace brake hardware on older drum brake (40s-70s) vehicles unless I can get my hands on NOS factory or aftermarket parts. Hardware kits (return springs) in the current auto parts chain have repeatable failure in my experience. Clean and inspect the originals carefully, they are almost always OK. You can't beat that old USA quality.......

Just my two cents of experience.......
