Lets see if this works.
72armyswbtruck,
Hope you don't mind.From the info given I would say they fit.

woodridge · 08-22-2007, 10:11 AM

I thing it would depend if they are for an Eaton or DANA and which one you have.

wibilly · 08-22-2007, 10:59 PM

eaton drums have fins across the perimiter. never had the wheels of my dana equiped truck

**kwmech** · 08-22-2007, 11:34 PM

Those look identical to the drums on my dana

72armyswbtruck · 08-23-2007, 05:13 AM

Thanks, They should fit my Dana then,good ot know. Next question then would be What are they Worth?

wibilly · 08-23-2007, 08:14 AM

I'm pretty sure those drums are for the narrow 2" shoes on an Eaton rearend. As far as I know the wider and more common Eaton drums are available but the 2" ones are not.

Longhorn Man · 08-25-2007, 02:32 PM

those look nothing like any eaton drum I've had (granted, only 3 rears, 2 3/4 tons and one 1 ton) but they look just like the drums on both of my dana 3/4 ton rears.

One of my customer's trucks has an Eaton rear with the unavailable narrow drums and they look EXACTLY like these. With the bid up to $370 though im gonna pass. I have pictures on the camera at the shop I'll post them tomorrow or Monday, not that it really will matter since the auction will be over.
