Help!! Can't find drums. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

subalternnavert · 07-08-2008, 05:20 PM

I have a '67 GMC C-15 with a 305 v-6, factory leaf suspension and a dana 44. I cannot find drums or even a good part number. All the part numbers lead to the standard drums for chevrolet and they don't fit. Does anyone have a GMC part book and am willing to look up the number for me?

Or, if you have any places to suggest that I could find drums for it...

You posted this in the correct forum, but I think you might get a better response in the 67-72 forum. I'll move it and see what happens.

71 k10 4wd drums work I have the same rear end as you and just went through the same thing . The 4wd drums have the right back space and work well. I have put about 300 miles on mine with no problem . The outside is bigger because of fins but no clearance issues and they fit the backing plates properly . If you need part # let me know . Hope this helps. Bob

You are correct they don't make em anymore and they are hard to find used. That is why I'm running the 4wd drums they make them and they fit properly.
