Help with '55 F100 Drum Identification (front vs. rear)...
 

Hello,

I recently bought some '55 F100 brake parts for a hotrod I am building, I got a pair of drums and the seller wasn't sure if they were front or rear. They are very nice, and I would like to use them if I can. How can I tell if they are fronts?

Thanks,
Will Kimble

The front drums use 2 inch wide brake shoes. The brake surface on the drum is
2.280 inches. Rear drums used 1 3/4 inch shoes.
