Friction disks to thick?

The ones that came out were just metal, they had dam near welded them self to the steels. There was no friction material left.

So no comparing them to the orignal...
It was the front drum that was smoked you said.
I am talking about the rear drum, the one you are having the problem with. You said the frictions in the rear were OK, so those are the ones you would be comparing with. If you were having issues with the front drum then we would have been having a different conversation.
