New to the forum / 1938 Chrysler rear drum hub repair?

[RobertKB]

Thanks guys!!

 

RobertKB do you know what Chrysler they are from?? I have a 1942 brake part interchange book. I could see if they would work. And yes they are 11" X 2". Thanks!!!

 

P15-D24 I wanted to use a sleeve would have been the fastest and cheapest way, but since it is tapered(seems like mine is the only one) the sleeve would not work. It has to be at least the same diameter down the hub for at least a 1/2". Mine is at 2.09 at that point starting at 2.00" at the top. I never thought of braze welding it. Thanks for the idea on that!!!!!!! 

 

They are from a '46-48 Chrysler. I am pretty sure I have some rears. I know I have the front drums but will have to check to make sure I have both rears. They are in a storage garage off property.

Thanks all for the excellent feed back. I know rear drums for '37-'42 Chrysler fit. I looked at Plymouth and though the outside of the hub is correct, the shaft diameter is smaller!  I am going to talk to my friend and see if he can mill it down to 2.04 which is where the groove is at and use a speedi sleeve. If he can't or that won't work(he should know) I most likely be interested in the '46-'48 drums if they are good and will fit!!

 

Thanks again for all the feed back oh and yes this has turned out to be a learning thread!!!
