Help!!! Looking for a front hub and drum (right side)

In the process of changing out the left side lug nuts for the correct thread, I damaged the drum and hub beyond repair. Anyone have a usable 10" drum and hub from the right front? East coast preferred to save shipping. Killer is, this is the last thing I need to go for the first ride!!! The 318 swap is done--ready to burn the tires!!!

Welcome to the site!!! The Mopar guys should be checking in soon

I'll check the van in the junkyard sunday and let ya know.hopefully its still there cause I need some more parts off it too.

I don't have one myself but wildcat mopars probably does if you cant get one locally.

I take it you didn't grind off the back of the studs before using the BFH on the studs?? I have one, but I bet shipping aint gonna be cheap. Napa has new drums for $64.00 if you want to go that route, and I can ship you the hub. Or the whole assembly what ever you want to do. Send me a PM with your address and I will see what shipping is through UPS, have to check on the max weight for a USPS large flat rate box.

I looked at both of my spare front axles today and both of them are 11". The hubs are the same though. You are welcome to the hub if you want it.

Case anyone runs into the same thing this is how the damage happened. I was able to get the drum loose from the hub (bent it but was really junk anyway) and pressed the studs out real easy with the press. Parts store sold me wheel studs that looked perfect. Appears they were just a fraction to large in diameter between the end of the knurled area and the head of the stud. When I pressed them into the hub they went real smooth until the last 1/8 inch then I had to "lean on them" a bit. After getting 3 of them in, I pulled the hub out of the press to take a closer look at what I was doing and found cracks in the hub around each of the stud bosses. Seems I was splitting the casting then I was going in the last bit. Should have mic'ed the stud diameter. Live and learn!

Mine were "staked" after they put the drums on so the only way to get mine out was to grind the head off the inside of the drum and drive the studs out from the inside out..

believe it or not the easiest way is to get a metal cutting hole saw that just fits over the stud and drill the "knurled edge" from the base of the stud through to the hub but NOT into it. do all 5 and the drum falls off and you save the studs.

I'll stick with plan "D" and grind them off. My drill bits are more expensive than my grinding wheel. Just use good gloves and a face shield.

So bottom line here,did you ever get the hub assembly you need? I ve got a 66 A100 I can see what drums are on it. Additionally,Vic ,aka Old Skool talks about hubs all the time and how to remove studs. Somebody said there was even a tool for cutting the staked part off which sounds very similar to the hole saw.

Got one today in the mail. Big thanks to 67 a100 pickup for the hookup. Going to throw the new drum on the hub tonight and bolt the new wheels on. If it ever stops raining, I will take it for the maiden voyage!!!!

Heres the tool I was talking about. Not cheap but what is these days? Keep in mind it comes in different sizes from other vendors.

Don, I was wondering what year of van ya got the drum/hubs off from?? The hub and drums are different than what I have on my 69. The swedging on mine was a full 180 degree, the studs had the knurl all the way to the threads and through the drum and the back side of the hub was not flat. Even getting the drum to drop back on was not all that easy (die grinder) as it seemed like it may have been pressed on the hub from the factory originally. Nothing changes on getting them apart , but its just another degree of difficulty.

you can get the a series with 11' brakes as well on the front. only had one van with the big brakes. they have the bigger king pins also.
just picked up a spare front axle so its time to start the disc brake conversion on the spare so it will be a bolt on when the time comes for the truck. and yes i will keep a record of parts and work needed to do the conversion.
