I have just traded for some barndoor front brake drums, I have stripped them down to clean up and repaint.

But before I go any further I just want to confirm the front drums are correct for barndoor bus. they are part no. 211 405 615 A

The backing plates look correct, although I cannot see a 22 on the cylinder. It has 4x bolts securing it to backing plate.
Please see pics, any info will be very much appreciated. They are German FAG 22505 on rubber seal

So I believe the drum is a later early bus drum 211 405 615 A.

Barndoor drum should be 29 415 29 2 or 3


Looks like the later drum and og barndoor backing plate worked as a combo.

Anyone else run this combo?

Any info on the cylinders?
