The 48-52 has more offset then the later 53 and up drum and are expensive. Sometimes you can find good used ones. I remember reading were someone found a late 80's bronco rear drum that would work on the front of the 48-52 and were common and inexpensive.

Its a wider shoe on the bronco but the depth works with the offset of the F1 hub and you only use the outer 2" with the F1 shoe.
