If you original hubs are still good. Use them. The rear hubs often have problems with the bearing surfaces being worn out. Just went to all cast iron drums on our 1929 Tudor, and it was a great improvement. I used all of my original hubs. The stud removal/installation and hub flange turning was done by a local machine shop.
