LR1970 Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Hi, I am looking for 1 rear wire wheel brake drum and hub for 1930-32 Chrysler/Plymouth/Dodge/Desoto. To suit 11inch brakes with 5x5.5 lug nut pattern. I will also accept a front one so I can use the drum. Thank you' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narve N Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 I strongly believe that you are not looking for a 30/31 brake drum. The original ones were much taller than 11" which again sounds like a mid or late 30s, possibly even newer drum? Besides that, the wheel bolt patterns of c1930 era differed a lot between Plymouth vs DeSoto vs Dodge vs various Chryslers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LR1970 Posted February 22 Author Share Posted February 22 Thanks for your opinion. I strongly believe you are thinking of Chrysler model 72-75-77 14inch brake drums. My car is a Chrysler model 66 which has the same 11inch drums as Plymouth PA etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narve N Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Interesting to learn something new. My 1929 Series 65 has 14" drums, so going from 14 to 11 on its direct replacement (Series 66 as introduced in 1929) was an interesting development. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LR1970 Posted February 23 Author Share Posted February 23 Yes, I think after 1930 all the brakes for each model become standard equipment across the board. So, like the 14-inch wire wheel drums, these are hard to find also. Leigh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
