Does anyone sell the front hubs for a 68 Charger with 11 inch brake drums? Thanks.

Are all the b-body hubs the same?
I have a set from a 66 Coronete, I am not using.


I have mechanical Aptitude.
I can screw up anything.

Also you can use C-Body hubs and drums

Thanks for the ideas. I tried a hub and drum from a 68 c body with 11 inch drums, and also a 71 c body and they both go too far back on the spindle, making the drums rub on the edge of the brake shoes. Then when I go to tighten up the lug nuts the wheel locks up. I have tried to space the hub out with washers, but that makes the whole car shake when I apply the brakes. I do have one correct hub that will work good on either side, so if I had one just like it, it would work. I can't seem to find a part number on the good one to compare. A disk brake conversion is looking better all the time.
