2ManyTrucks, I scrounged through my various Master Parts Book resources and couldn't find detailed drum dimensions for what was used on 1-1/2Ton truck. I did find Chevy dealer pamphlets with brake specifications like this for 1952 Chevy Trucks. A snapshot of the brake specs page is below. In looking at all the available pamphlets from 1946-52, they all show the 1-1/2 ton and up trucks shared 14" x 2" front brake drums. Not the same as the 1 Ton 14" x 2-1/2" rear drums. I think this answers your question. wink
