| Yeah, the drums should bolt right on to the IRS stub axles. Believe it or not, but the drums and shoes are the same size from 62 to 73. :D This makes the mixing of parts easier. |

| So does this mean that I could use a four bolt backing plate and four bolt type 3 springs, shoes and wheel cylinders while still retaining a wide 5 drum???? |

| No, the five lug drums will fit right over the four lug stuff. |

Yes, it will swap right in place. You WILL have to remove the 4 lug drive plate first, so that the 5 lug drum will slide on. :D |

| It's the piece that sits behide the drum that the lugs actually bolt into. You'll see when you pull the 4-lug drum off. You'll need to remove the big 36mm nut to get the drive plate off. |
