Re: Smaller/thinner rear brake drum? Deep rear steelies won't fit!

This thought crossed my mind....but I didn't want to get that involved. At least not yet!

The truck has a Spartan locker in the rear, so it's set up nicely right now. I'm just trying to squeeze in these large wheels and tires. But it's turning out to be quite the chore!

The disc brake swap looks pretty involved as well, at least at first glance. Not sure I can do this without some coaching.

The drum swap (to the smaller width shoe size) is probably the way I'll have to go. Again - that's without playing with the spacers or anything as of yet....
