The screw holding on one of my front brake drums was way too tight and I had to get it off using an impract driver.

It's now looking a bit worse for wear so I need to get a new one.

I've been looking on MiniSpares website but I've not managed to find one. Perhaps I've not looked hard enough? Has anyone got a link?

Any possibility I could get such an item from Halfords?

I typed in 'Drum screw' on Minispares, and look what came up...

1/4 UNF if you have a local nut 'n bolts guy.

You won't crash 'n die if you leave it off - well you may but it won't have any effect since you also have 4 wheel nuts keeping the drum on.

i havent got any on mine and its totally safe.

Back when I didn't have any I used to put a run spanner over two studs, throw a two wheel bolts then adjust the shoes.

Found without screws the only problem you tend to have is that the drum won't always sit right with no wheel on.

Ok thanks for the help guys.

Looks like another order to minispares soon.
