71 Dart 7 1/4 to 8 3/4 Questions

The backing plates also do not swap over. They are the same for 8 1/4 and 8 3/4, but 7 1/4 is smaller. I believe the brake shoes and hardware will swap over if you have 10" drums on the rear. If you have 9" drums on the rear, they definitively will not. If I'm wrong about this someone will chime in quickly.....we're good about that on this forum. Good luck with your swap. One last thing....the emergency brake cables are a definitive swap over...no problems there...
