Default 2-8Lug drums for disc brake conversion.
Looking for a pair of drums in the 8 lug style. Prefer worn out brake liners as I will be machining them down. Oscoda MI. 989-387-7706

Rears and fronts are interchangeable. As far as I know. What have you got?

This will be my own attempt at removing the drums from the hub and installing disc brakes, not yet bought, on the front of my 1963 Grand prix.

I have been under the weather for a few days and I am having a medical procedure next week.
I have to see what I have and box them to get a shipping cost.
Are you in a rush?

I did exactly what you intend to do. I put REAR drums on the front of a 1962 Bonneville equipped with disc brakes. Years ago I cut down the drums with a brake lathe but being retired this time I used my table saw with a metal cutting blade. If I can help just ask. Good luck.
