Rear Brake Drum Specs.

Does anyone know what the dia. spec is for my 69 C/10 drums LEAF REAR I measured them and they are 11 inches wide (almost bang on), I can't find any spec #'s on the drums. I hope I can reuse them as I just found out they have been discontinued (from 69 & earlier) and this could turn into a gongshow, thanks Doug (shoes are 11"X2")

According to LMC magazine,

11" Brakes have 2" wide brake shoes.

11-5/32" Brakes have 2-3/4" wide brakes shoes and the wheel cylinder has two threaded bolt holes.
