<VV> Upgrading EM rear drums

[Matt Nall]

Anyone have any experience changing rear drums to 5 lug and or bigger
diameter
drums?
This is on a 62

===========================================================
Sure!!  the old way to get larger brakes is to use the axles and brakes from a 61-5 FC  [  rampside / Greenbrier / Corvan ]  and that gives you 5 x 4.75"  bolt pattern...
A simple spacer  and the right  wheels  and everything fits...


Currently most are just going to Discs on the rear   http://levairperformance.webs.com/  can supply the pieces.. or you can fab your own......not easy, as you must remember the rear axle bearings  swivel!
