fubar XJ

So I swapped in an XJ rear D44 as part of my massive buildup, and the rear drums don't fit properly. They're standard 10" x 2.5" drums/shoes, but there's a ridge on the outdoard edge of the inner (braking) surface that rides the outer edge of the shoes. Anyone else encounter this? I ground down the outer shoe metal plate even with the braking material and have begun slowly grinding down this ridge on the drums with a Makita. This seems like it should not be an issue, factory drums, factory shoes, should fit properly the first time.
Any experience with this problem?
