Default wide 5 rear drum differences

I have to replace a rear 36 wide 5 drum due to stripped lugs.

I've sourced a good 39 drum. Currently sitting in Evaporust

I haven't pulled the 36 drum yet, and before I do I would like to have all the pertinent bits necessary to reinstall at the same time.

Will the bearing fit and assuming I won't be able to reuse the grease seal which one do I need to purchase? OR can I use 36 parts in the later drum?

I also need to locate a shop/person that could replace these lug studs correctly.
I have the NOS lugs in hand

John,
Let me find my swedging tools I lent one set out but still have another set (somewhere) and I can do it for you. We have to meet up in the near future anyways. I have a couple brake lathes with the correct arbor for early ford rear drums if you need it machined as well.
