55 Chieftain brake drums
Does anyone still carry these drums? I have checked with NAPA, and Rockauto, and all 4 of mine are shot, extreme weight reduced versions lol

Kanter.com lists front and rear drums: https://www.kanter.com/productdetail...0&Cat=6&Prc=35

Kanter is showing one part number for both front drums and another part number for rear drums. Original Pontiac had different part numbers for all 4 corners. I think (but wouldn't bet my life on it) that the only difference between left side and right side original drums is left side have studs with left-hand threads.

Scarebird I have 15 inch wheels, would it be because not 5x5 bolt patter on rotor?
694.1 I checked your sources and all tell me they wont fit my car. I am sure your information is correct I need to take a drum to parts store and match them up. |
