My '70 F100 Rear End currently has axles with 5 @ 5 1/2". I'm having new axles made that will match the front and will also be 5 @ 4 1/2". Does anyone know what brake drum will work with the new 4 1/2" pattern? I need an 11" drum that'll take 2 1/2" linings. The overall heigth of the drum is 3 3/4". I suspect several of you guys have done the same so thought I would ask and not reinvent the wheel (or drum in this case). | | | | | Joined: May 2006 Posts: 8,351 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: May 2006 Posts: 8,351 | Try looking at full size ford passenger car drums.
