j hancock Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Page 29 has listings for 18" drum. http://www.webbwheel.com/severeduty/pdfs/2011Catalog.pdf I had an obsolete size for a truck. Found a match for everything except the depth measurement. Took the drum to a machine shop and they machined it for the correct depth. Sorry, can't help with shoes.

davehummell Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Can the brake shoes be bolt on lineings? My friend couldn't find drums for his old trailer and he found an iron foundry and had them cast new ones then he turned them down to size on my old lathe he got from me. time consuming but it was a very happy ending for him.
