Well, I'm knee-deep in reconditioning my front brakes on my '52 Champion. But I'm running into a few problems...
One of my front drums is severely worn and even appears warped. Looking around in catalogues, I can't seem to find any drums, or drum/hub assemblies for my car. Are they repopped, or are NOS available?
Can I press out my original hub, or is it integral to the drum?
I know that I can swap the front backing plates and drums (and all the internals) from a Commander, and am willing to do this if I can find a set of fronts for the right money. But then the same question applies for the hubs. Will I need Commander hubs, or are Commander and Champion Hubs interchangable?
Any help would be very much appreciated.
