Default GM 9.3” brake drum availability

Mine have a pretty good lip. I’m assuming they are not available new so is the only option to find a nice used set or convert to discs? Anybody got a good source?

Or would you just run them with the lip?

California Pontiac Restoration has a listing for rear drums: http://www.pontiacparts.net/Chassis/default.htm I'd call and confirm, and also ask about front drums - they don't necessarily have all their stock listed on the website.

edit: Ames Performance has listings for both front and rear drums. https://secure.amesperf.com/qilan/Se...sub_rowid=1098

You can still get the rear drums through NAPA and Rock Auto. That reminds me that I need to order a couple for my ‘64.

I didn't think of Rockauto. I just checked their site and interestingly, even though the rear drum was the same in both years, they don't list one for 1962 but they do for 1964.

Found a pair of raybestos professional on eBay for 88 bucks and they fit perfectly. Glad I asked!
