    Default EG rear drum pulsing/clicking issue

    I have a 94 EG coupe si, the brakes have been pulsing for a long time, its not so bad with light pedal pressure, but with heavy pressure, or higher speeds (>90) its quite pronounced. first thought was to replace the front rotors, which did nothing, then I replaced the rear drums and shoes, nothing, and when I did the shoes and adjusted them now I have a clicking that has the same rhythm as the pulsing coming from the right rear drum brake, I though maybe the wheel bearing was fucked so I replaced it and still nothing, only thing I can think of is maybe the spindle that holds the bearing/hub assembly is bent, but apparently you cant buy that separate, you have to buy the whole trailing arm assembly.

    I'm at a loss, its irritating and already have 200 in parts thrown at this problem, not to mention labor, so although I've considered just doing a disc swap and forgetting about it, Id rather not dump any more money into the problem.

    any thoughts would be awesome!!

    Brand new drums can be distorted. I have experienced it a few times. Shit metal and distortion in shipping leads to big headaches.

    Get the drums machined before you chase your tail any further.

    Ae92 is right, I've experienced it countless times, plus, when you put new rotors on, make sure the hub to rotor surface is clean and rust free
