I have drum brakes. My driver's side is a degree negative already which I take to mean my axle is bent slightly. They wanted to shim that side to make it 0. If i put a shim in on the passenger side it will be a degree negative as well thus eliminating the tire rub and cutting I am having. I didn't roll the fenders well enough and noone out here can help me so im stuck til august.
