    Anyone know what 5 on 4 1/2” drums can be fitted to 57-64 or 53-56 f100 spindles? Have a 62 f100 axle under my 56 Fairlane. Want to run 4 1/2” bp skinnys

    Yes, way simpler to just redrill the hubs and press in fresh studs.
     
  4. Drilled the hubs and drums on my 53-56 brakes. Better check the hole in the wheels before you spend money. The hub is over size by at least an 1/8
