Does any company make front wheel hubs for drum brakes? Looking to buy ones for my 70 with 11 " brakes.  I can't find the hubs any where. I want to keep the front drums. Don't want disc brakes.
I don't want to buy from Ebay. There is to much junk there.
Any help would be great.

I don't think there is anyone making them  But good news is they are not very hard to find.  I think I have a few on the shelve.   If we know where you are located (hint to put a pin on the map)  :bigthumb: maybe someone local to you might have a set.  I see them all the time at swap meets.

I  updated the map. I live in northern MN . I wish we had swap meets up here but none to be had.
If you or some one would like to sell one let me know. Parts are really scarce up here most of the older cars went to the crusher . A lot of the older junk yards are long gone.

The issue with parts like that is they are so heavy that shipping them becomes a little more challenging.  That's why so many people take them to swap meets.  And there they will sell them for next to nothing.  Do you need the complete unit or just the spindle?

Yup: I threw away 3 sets of 11 inch fronts within this last year. As mentioned they are super heavy and I knew no one would pay shipping if they wanted them anyway. You shouldn't have to pay much when you find them.

I just need the hub where the bearings fit into.  the spindle and everything else is good.
