anybody have comparison pics between 8 1/4 and 8 3/4 drum backing plates??

when i said they are the same i ment they will bolt up as a set and fit...

unless your running 8.75 brakes of a b,c, or one of the boats then what you have are small bolt pattern 8.75 stuff, those only have a 2" offset. same as small bolt and some large bolt 7.25's.

Now all you big bolt 8.25's, 8.75's, D60, 9.25 with 5x4.5 pattern all use the standard 2.5" offset, and the brakes will swap AS A SET between those axles.
