Trailer Hub question by taylor6632 on Mon Dec 22, 2014 9:01 pm
Bit of a random one but my 1982 Bradley car trailer needs brakes overhauling but they no longer make the lockheed brake drums, backing plates and parts. They are a 9" drum. Now i'm thinking that maybe just another 9" drum off a classic car may well bolt on and do the job (wheels are 13" 4 stud). Any ideas if anyone has tried it? Or anyone know any cars with 9" drums that i could start looking at as i'm drawing a blank.

Morris Minors had 9" front drums on the 1098cc models, earlier 948cc had 8" drums. Stud PCD was 4" and had 4 stud wheels

Believe the Wolsey/Riley 1500 also had the same size drums and PCD
Soon to be without a Frontera after 10 years of owning one :-(

Trailertek do the 9" shoes and if you look on eBay or classic triumph sites you will find the adjusters and springs. www.trailertek.com .
