    Im having a hard time finding rear drums for the van. Any one else have this issue? I got some that I was told would fit but they dont. I think they were fronts they were to wide. Then the parts guy said they called out same part# for front to rear but I remember Donivan saying 2 1/2" shoes in the front and 2 " in the rear.

    So I looks like I have the real deal 2" x 9 1/2 I will order that part and it will work because you are the Man thank you Donivan. Parts people these days over this way I dont think they are used to older vehicles relying on the computer to be right. he also had a book I saw it with my own eyes. it called out the same drum for front and rear . weird bad informaton.  This is the second set I got like this first I got them from napa but I thought I made the mistake on the part # "Rear drums Rear_d11Rear drums Rear_d12
