1970 drum brakes 6 lug hub question
I need to replace driver side front hub for 1970 2wd 6 lug original drum setup.
Will the passenger side front hub work if it is all i can only locate? Are the driver/passenger hubs interchangeable? Last edited by 337; 05-17-2020 at 12:13 AM. |

Why would you not buy a new one?
They’re not crazy expensive. And with a 50 year old used one you don’t know what you’re getting |

Or give me a recommendation on a new compatible replacement part. Everyone goes the disc conversion route. Doubt there is any money in a company making new drum hubs for these trucks which is why I need what is available. A quick search on the site shows a few others had the same problem locating replacement drum hubs. I am hoping those that do disc conversion dont trash or scrap those old useable parts just because they aren't modern. Last edited by 337; 05-17-2020 at 12:19 AM. |

I would think they're interchangeable from left to right. You need to be a supporting member to post a "want to buy ad" in the parts forum. But you can buy if someone has one advertised.

Re: 1970 drum brakes 6 lug hub question
OK back To the original question, The driver and passenger side hubs interchangeable? Just looking for a Parts expert to give me a confident answer.

There is no machine work on those parts that make them left or right specific. .

Re: 1970 drum brakes 6 lug hub question
On my '68 C/10 the brake drums are interchangeable; left, right, front, back -- all same-same.
