New drums from Rockauto.com. They are 11" drums and go for $87 EACH at the auto parts stores. I got THE PAIR from Rockauto.com for $137.67 shipped to my door. I painted them high heat black.

During this time I also cut the extra long u bolts that came with the 4" lift. Those are new rear leaf springs, also. I will post a detailed how-to on the lift later. To make it easy and make them look uniform, I threaded the old nuts over the bolts and cut them off with a 4 1/2" cutting wheel.
