Thumbs up HO72 Parts For Sale...............

I have the Brake Drums and Backing Plates for an 8 Lug HO72 rear axle for sale. They are for 2" x 12" brake shoes.

The Drums were sandblasted, sprayed with gloss black RustOleum, and cut/re-surfaced last week.

The Backing Plates were sandblasted on the outside, and also sprayed with gloss black RustOleum.

These Drums are very expensive to replace with new/reman. units, and the Backing Plates are just not available anymore from any manufacturer.

$40.00 for the entire lot plus shipping.

Thanks,
72longbed

Re: HO72 Parts For Sale...............

Rob - I believe the HO72 brakes are larger. And almost impossible to find drums for.

Re: HO72 Parts For Sale...............

Found a 1971 3/4 ton ho52 rear end complete including all brake assembles for $50 and picked up the front rotors, calipers and power brake bootster and master cylinder for another $ 25. Also picked up another set of complete brake assembles for the ho52 that has all parts and drums in great condition for $25. Patience and persistance gets it done.

Any measurements?

I bought a set a couple years ago (might of even been from 72longbed-can't even remember) but I never did use them.

If I can find out a measurement, I'll know if their 52's or 72's and maybe help one of these guys out.

I think mine are 72's though, if I recall.

Thumbs up Re: HO72 Parts For Sale...............

vtblazer,

you bought mine. The shoes are bigger (in both ways) than an HO52. You got a sweet set of drums (rare in that shape) with backing plates (just plain rare not to be rotted out) for an awesome deal. If you hold onto them long enough they might be worth what 1972 'Ram Horn' tow hooks are worth today.

Longhorn Man,
I've got an HO72 under my K20 right now. Converted it to 12.5" disk brakes. The truck lost about 80 lbs in the process. Sweet, bullet-proof rear. Its a detroit locker 4:10. I think the HO72's are just cool looking too. They look almost sudo-military. Bad Ass!
