Installing the 10" drum brakes (from a 8.25 housing) on a freshly re-done 8.75/small bolt circle/ adjustable bearing axles. It appears the housing flange/axle flange to the axle is appx 1/4" too narrow.
I think I can find brake drums for the small bolt circle (1970) 8.75 rear and machine 1/4" off the plate/hardware that goes between the shoes that is interfering with the axle studs
any ideas on other remedies?
