Rear end Possibly Graham Bros ? - Large and Heavy

[3macboys]

Hello All, 

 

I'm looking for help to identify this rear end.  I'm guessing from the size of it that it is out of a 20's truck.  It came in a pile of stuff that I picked up so that it didn't go for scrap.  The fellow who had it described the lot as being early Dodge but there was a complete Star motor (already donated to a fellow with Stars) in the mix so I don't really know what this is out of.  It had Dodge Brother caps on it but I'm fairly certain they were just there because that was what was on hand at the time.  The drums are 15 inches across and the center section is 13 inches.  The bolt spacing appears to be roughly 6 1/5 X 5 bolt.  

 

Thanks,

 

Don

I have some similar drums and were identified as early Dodge Brothers. Probably fits Graham Brothers, too.

Some say "DB" or "GB" on the outside of the rear gear assembly.

If it had DB caps on it, it is probably from a DB.

Thank you - I will take a look to see what all I can find on them to identify them further.

I should have mentioned that the caps did not really fit, almost pushed on instead of threaded on which had been a bit more puzzled.
