Thank you and the others for both the information supplied and ability to pick up a couple of good used drums from you. We did some parts store diggin and came up with a couple of new new drums that will work.

Dodge pick-up?

Dodge pick-up?

We bought 2 new Ford drums. Took out the complete axle assembly and ran them over to machine shop to remove the hubs and press out old studs for the shoulder was deformed ...not permitting old hub to be used less we used new studs. This way we found drums with a slightly larger hole and had to press in new studs that fit properly. I wanted to use all new components no old stuff.

COSTS..... two drums 30.00 each 10 new studs....29.00 machine shop.... 60.00 ..................... 150 bucks for all new components.

Lastly to answer your direct question, I have no clue if a dodge pick up set of drums work.
