'60s pickups and some '60s C-bodies used 11 x 2" drums.

Some '60s-'70s C and B-bodies used 11 x 2 1/2" drums.

Some '60s C-bodies used 11 x 3" drums.

Some '70s-'80s pickups and vans used 11 x 2 1/2" drums.

My 68 RR has 11" rears, its a power disc brake car




Then someone swapped them on there, the factory installed the wrong rear end assembly or it's not an original disc car because it's supposed to have 10" drums on the rear ....




Hey JohnRR. Are you saying that most all Dodge & Plymouth B bodies if equipped with power disc brakes would have had 10in drums?




Up until and including 1970 , not sure what they did after that .

Ok, I remembered I had these shots, I snapped some pics of the van I yanked the parts off of, to make it easier to shop for replacements:








That looks like ROCKLIN Pick-n-Pull.

Rear drum sizes 65-68 C bodies.Drums were smooth-finned after 1969.
Fury with /6,318 11X2
All C's with 383,440's 11X2-1/2"
Tow packages 11X3" drums BOTH FRONT AND REAR (non self adjusting shoes).
All C wagons came with 11x2-1/2 with any engine,except when ordered with towpackage.
The different widths in drums require the matching backing plates.
Hope this helps.

1973 Satellite WAGON! 318- 3 on the tree!!

If I buy a pair of 11x3 backing plates...do they sell the drums and hardware over the counter through places like Autozone,NAPA and Oreilly's???

Why not call them and ask about the drums and hardware?

Do I ask for 68-70 Bbody rear drum brake 11inch hardware?? I thought the B-bodies had 11x2.5 brakes and not 11x3???

What year and type of vehicle would I reference for the hardware to fit 11x3 backing plates?
