    I was looking for drum replacements for my taco. Not very many options on sites like A1 auto, carparts.com or rock auto. They are there, but im not sure what a reliable drum company is. Any advice? My drums are warped and in need of replacment.

    Can’t go wrong with oem parts online, most times better prices with reasonable shipping.

    Unusual. Have you already been told they can’t be cut true?

    I have cut them. They are warped to the point cutting wont get rid of the pulse.

    before anyone asks, i know its the rear drums, the front is cut with new pads. The brake pulse is in the peddle, and i can see the warp in the drum while on the lathe.

    I have powerstop on mine.
    They seem to be doing fine.

    It’s the hardware (springs) you want to go OEM on.

    Depends how fast you need them. Plan ahead or Tacoma all apart and need now.
    I have had both types below and both are OK.

    Powerstop rears are Autospeciality and you can get just drums or the kit which comes with drums, pads, and springs and is a cheaper option and Amazon has about $140 or so.

    Local pickup but more expensive is Advance Auto: (for my 09 so check your year)
    Rear brake drums YH140819 (2 year warranty)
    Shoes S871 (lifetime)
    Spring kit 17263

    Then if you need:
    Wheel cylinders WCA131480
