Sorry, fellow listers.  I should have included an extra piece of 
information in that post.  The finned aluminum brake drums were a 
VERY tight fit on the TR3 studs at first, but after removing and 
installing them a few times they have loosened up a bit.

Hopefully, this will not be a problem.  One could, of course, take 
the drums to a machine shop and have the holes bored out slightly to 
install on a '3.
