Re: IML: Brake Drum Style

[<dansgarage@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All...since we are kicking around info on brake drums, can one of you experts tell me which other years will also fit my '66 LeBaron, and are ALL 1966 IMPERIAL brake drums the same (meaning is there a difference between the CROWN and LeBaron drums?)
Thanks all!!! Hope you are staying nice and warm in this crazy cold weather!!!Here in Beaumont, CA in southern California it is reading 23 degrees right now (12:33am Sunday).......I think southern Cal just got moved to the Twilight Zone!!

I don't have a '66, but I do have a '65 and many others. None of them 
have flared brake drums w/cooling fins on them. I believe that the 
brakes on 1965 and 1966 are identical. There may be a '66 shop manual 
on the OIC Web site.

Subject: IML: 1966 Brake Drum Style

I may be mistaken about the '66 Crown having flared brake drums. I was 
under the impression that they were the style that flared out, 
overlapping the backing plate with what looks like cooling fins on the 
flared portion like they were on the back of my '67 Dodge Monaco 500. 
However someone emailed me saying that the drums on the Crown are not 
flared but just have a small ridge around the inside circumference. If 
that's the case my car may have the original style drums on it. Can 
anyone verify this or better yet have a picture of what the stock drums 
look like? 
 
Thanks 
Brad
