COOL! So that way the bearings will stay in the same location and the 13" drum would still have the correct spacing to work with the backing plate?

That is awesome because I have a 8 lug D44 front that I could swap and have the 14 bolt with brakes as well. Therefore IŽll just mount the 14 bolt drums onto the HO52 hubs and be all set with a better braking system!

Thanks for the info!

I might try to find 71/72 hubs, if I canŽt I just bore out the 68 hubs...
