The aluminum drums you are looking for have a 9.50-inch outside diameter, 2.00-inch width, and weight nine pounds each (iron drums weigh 14 pounds).
Note if your interested in really improveing your stopping power with drum brakes contact Praise Dyno Brake in Royce City, Tx. at 214-636-2722 and look into their Kevlar based brake shoes. They will dramaticly improve braking. Also Porterfield in Costa Mesa, Ca at 949-548-4470 has a special R-45 carbon-Kevlar drum brake shoe that is similar.
