Strange brake drums
I had a rear end a few years ago that had the strangest rear drums. It was a 35 or 36. I could not tell witch. The drums had both wheel stud pattern studs. They were swedged in. The drums were open design and I could see the internals. You could mount either 5.5 wheels or wide five ones.
Maybe aftermarket? |

Where did your avatar go, Andy? Maybe you need a new one with a little different flair, for instance: DD

Re: Strange brake drums
There are 36 rear drums that are two piece. The hub bolts onto the drum using 5 bolts on [probably] 5 1/2" bolt pattern. They are however the large bolt pattern drums as used 36-39

Re: Strange brake drums
I found this one pic on the hamb. Might have been rear only?? Fronts also have windows but are one piece (or at least one bolt pattern).
