In need of 1952 Olds right front brake/hub

I've posted in the general section too, I'm grounded until I can find a 1952 right front drum/hub...Mines shot. A 50/51 or preferably 52 will work. I'd prefer the right side with the right handed wheel threads, instead of a left side with the left handed threads, but I'll take a left side to get me back on the road.

Thanks guys for the help.

hello old codger, call jerry turner's auto wrecking in fresno, ca. 559-237-0918, jerry has over 10,000 old cars. you can use the left side hub and have new righthand thread lugbolts press in. charles coker, 1953 pontiac tech advisor.

hi, i recently had both of my 1953 pontiac front hubs off the car to remove the original left and right hand threaded lug bolts so i could have new lug bolts installed that were 1/4th of an inch longer, i needed the extra 1/4" for keeping full thread contact for the lug bolts and nuts after putting a 1/4" wheel spacer between the front brake drums and wheels. reason i needed the extra 1/4" is so i could mount my 1953 olds wire wheel hubcaps that i modified with the 1953 pontiac rear fender indian emblems. i like the look of the olds wire wheel hubcaps so much more than what pontiac had as it's optional wire wheel hubcaps starting in 1953, the olds hubcaps makes it so much easier to install or remove the rear fender skirts. the 15" wheels that i'm using are also from a early 1950's olds 98 with the riveted on small hubcap clips, those are perfect for holding onto the olds wire wheel hubcaps too. one bonus i didn't expect is the new longer lug bolts doesn't bite into the lug holes on the brake drums like the original lug bolts do, so now i can remove the front brake drums to inspect the front brakes just like you can do when you slide off the rear brake drums. no need to pull the front hub with the front drums anymore. charles coker, 1953 pontiac tech advisor.

You should be able to use a 53 to 56 but will have to use the 52 on back inner bearing race,I bought what was supposed to be a rebuilt 54 front suspension for my 53 and used my 53 drums and found out the 52 on back had smaller inner bearings but using 52 on back bearings and races the 53 drums worked.

Some days a person gets lucky I guess....Found two of the front drum/hubs instead of just one. And only 60 miles way from me...A fellow was parting out a 50 Olds 4 door. The 50 Olds drum is the same as the 52.:) The were advertized in the local paper, under parts for sale. Took them to the local brake shop and they've never been turned. Bearings, races and seals from OLCAR BEARING COMPANY who was suggested from a post on the AACA forums to get bearings.

I'll be back on the road either this week-end or the first of next week.:)
