That's what I get for not double checking the book or my notes and shooting from the hip (or from my poor memory). I thought that it was awfully odd that ALL 8 drums were shot. But I chalked it up to bad luck.

It's all coming together now.

First, the fine folks at Lewis' Brake and Clutch couldn't find the shoes in the 14" brake section of the book.

Second, they DID find them under 14 + a little (that's what he said, "Here they are, 14 + a litle.")

Third, the drum mic (actually some sort of dial indicator deal) didn't even rub both sides of most of my drums when set at 14".

Fourth and most importantly, Joe has pointed out that the drums are indeed 14.125. And, as GTK stated, they have a Max diameter 14.220.

I guess when I go pick up my shoes, I'll have them re-measured with the correct setting this time. DOH!

Thanks Joe!
