For helping keep this great

on the Internet for over 30 years! and not clogged down with Ads! Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Dec 2014 Posts: 357 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2014 Posts: 357 | So I'm trying to buy brake pads. Yet my drums measure 12" and have 8 lugs
So the young lady at a major parts house says they have 11" and 13" . Now she did seen new and was referencing their catalogs. So I believe what she said.
This is for a 52 3600. Yet my brake drums seem odd. Rear end # KGp02

Parts for the 3/4 ton 3600 rear ends are few and far between. The number of 3600's vs 3100's was a much smaller production run so reproduction manufactures simply won't tool up and make parts. I took mine to a brake shop that would still re-line them. If you have yours that would probably be the best bet.

A big tractor trailer shop would be a good place to ask for a place that does it....just find the oldest looking guy and ask him! EDIT: this place advertises doing the reline and other stuff.

Mines laying in the shed for that reason. I did a complete rear end swap out to a Dana 60 with a 3.73 ratio for better highway speeds and parts availability
