35 Ford Wire Wheels

I have heard that 35 Ford wheels on a Model A require a spacer to properly fit the A brake drums. These are new cast iron drums.

Thanks, Steve

They bolt right on. Spacer is only needed if you have converted to early V8 hydraulics. Tim

Previous posts are correct but here is the illustration: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/t.../#post-8330045 You should be able to see the humps or a ring on your drums.
