    GStage1 Always looking for parts!

    There are 2 set-ups:

    One piece, drum is riveted to the hub

    Two piece, drum slides over the hub.

    Sounds like you have the 1 piece unit.

    On my 69 Olds Cutlass, the drums are held on by the wheel studs, which are swaged on...Had to pound out the old studs and then spent literally hours trying to find replacement wheel studs that would fit the now enlarged holes in the hub...

    If you need to replace the drums, take them somewhere that knows what they are doing or has done that type before...
