    Series Brake Drum Wear Limit

    I have an old Series I am doing up its a 109 11A
    I am at the point of fixing up the brakes and was wondering if anyone could tell me what the wear limit is on the rear drums.
    They are 11 inch brakes so about 280mm when new and they measure up at about 282 mm.
    Does anyone know if this is beyond spec

    thats oversize...

    on the lip of the drum should be a maximum diameter. the book form memory lists a nominal diameter, a maximum acceptable post machining limit and a maximum overall limit.

    the rover workshop manual lists as per grouchos post.

    by my brake service manual lists the specs for an 11 inch drum with 30thou oversize as having an allowable machining finish at 11.020"
