I need to replace the 11" factory rear drums on the 63GT, which I am installing Fairborn flanged axles in. Since the car originally came with disc brakes, it has Avanti style 11" rear drums, instead of 10". I have several good, 11" finned front drums and would like to avoid buying new rear drums if possible.
MY QUESTION: once the hubs are removed from front drums, are the drums themselves (minus their hubs) interchangeable, front to rear? In other words, can I remove the hub from an 11" front drum, then use that drum on the rear? Either way, with flanged axles, the drum will have to be hub-less, so removal of the hub is a non-issue. Question is, front to rear interchange of bare drums.
Thanks in advance.
