The front drums on my '70 Charger have a lemon-shaped hole in the backing plate and the old wheel cyl. is cast to fit in there nicely. These NAPA remanufactured (in USA) have more of a rectangular area on them. I can try to rebuild the originals but they are pretty gacked up from sitting for a very long time. Would you cut the backing plate or not?
