So is the bolt pattern for the backing plate the same? If so this would seem to be a simple swap- the backing plates are only like $20

Drums are a wear item anyway and mine are due for a turning/brake job.

Any reason not to spend the extra $20 x 2 plates; and get new drums?

(any downside to this other than some initial cost?)

Thanks!
