Brake Service Parts

I have a 2004 Beaver Monterey Newport on the Roadmaster M-Series chassis. I am attempting to do a complete service of the service brakes. Went removing the front brake drums I found that they have some major heat cracks in the drums and several square inches of
surface that has rusted material away. I am trying to source new brake drums but am not having much success. The existing drums are
WEBB brake drums with the number 65555 cast into the drum. The existing drums have 3 counter sunk holes on the wheel hub surface that hold the drum to the hub. How important is it to have these hols and bolts? Fleet Brake out of Calgary say they can get the WEBB drums out of Louisiana at a cost of $796 each plus tax. Do not know if this is in Canadian dollars or US dollars and if freight is included. This seems quite high.
Has anyone had this issue in getting brake service done? The local Monaco dealer is of no help. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know.

Harvey,
A cost of $796 each is very high, even in Canadian $. I would not expect to pay more the $200 to $250 US.

Thanks John and Gerald for your reply's.
I thought the prices were quite high as well but then we checked with the local Monaco dealer and they came back with
a quote of $4000.00 for the pair plus shipping. I ended up having my drums turned as there was plenty of material there.
This got rid of the corrosion and some of the heat checks but not all of them. Need to adjust my driving a bit and run the
hills a little slower so the the exhaust brake can hold the coach in 3 gear.

try using your exhaust brake more. Slow before needing to brake and learn to let the exhaust brake get you close to stpping. My 2001 Beaver brakes are still like new(originals)
