What size is my rear brake drum?
Well hey! After all the stuff I’ve learned from you it’s nice to be able to give something back!
I dunno when it started, or if they’re all like that. I just know that the last few sets of shoes I bought in 11x2.5” were universal, they could be set up either way. The originals I’ve seen definitely weren’t all like that. But considering that most of the shoes are likely made by only one or two factories and then branded after that there’s a decent chance most of them are universal now.
Here you go. The loaded backing plate is pin only. The set of shoes next to it is set up for both, you can see the round hole is in the same place as the pin on the loaded plate. The slots are present as well.
Info for that particular set of shoes. I'd include a picture of the pins they're supposed to come with, but I guess that's why there were a closeout at RockAuto! :rolleyes:
