| O'reillys is only showing Brakebest drums for the rear of a Vanagon. Anyone have any opinions on these drums? |

I'd move on down the road to Bendixland.
O'Reillys isn't the only game in town.
Brakebest sounds real oriental, or Gangi like to me.
Try them, you might like them.

Unfortunately, I don't have any info on the Brakebest brand, BUT I will say I ordered the Raybesto ones off RockAuto a couple of months ago and they turned out to be Zimmerman. Only $51 a pop.
I know that doesn't answer your question but just something to consider if price was the reason you were considering BrakeBest. Looks like O'Reilly has BrakeBest for $41, so it's only $10 more per side for the Raybesto/Zimmermans.

| These could certainly be repackaged, I think I may just order a single drum and take a peek at it. |
