Title: Rear brake drums
Post by: 2rusty57 on 2017-12-07 20:44
 I have a guy working brakes and he thinks I need two new rear brake drums. He swears he can?t find them. He might not be 25 years old. So a car from 1957 is pushing his buttons and he is pushing mind is there anyone that knows what year drums will work on a 57 ranchero 9 in  rear end axel .

Restoration supply, macs, summit, a lot of supplier. Just google search and you'll see quite a few sources. Make sure you brake tech checks the thickness on yours in case they can be turned

Ranchero should have the wider drums.

Same as 57-59 Wagons, Ranchero, Retractables and Sedan Deliveries.

All the popular vendors sell them, Concours, Dennis-Carpenter.com  and all the ecklers (chev guys) stores like
Mac's and Dearborn.

Goodluck,

Ron.
