What drums are now on your pickup?

If your truck has the original style wide lug, 5 on 10" you will have to change the drums to '40-48'. then use 40-48 16" wheels or 57-66 F100 15" wheels. You will have to use '40-48 hub caps on the '40-66 model wheels.
The above suggestions are based on the assumption that the brake conversion was done using conventional '39-41 brakes and/or 42-48 brakes.
