Price alert for 8 3/4 A body brake drums(10 inch)

[dustoff440]

After searching for replacement drums for my A body 8 3/4 rearend I finally found some that will work without paying an arm and a leg. CENTRIC part number 122.63044 are readily available for $100 each. I know that sounds like a lot but I have seen NOS drums for sale for as much as $250 each.
They do not have the huge "fin" like the OE ones but they definitely work!!!

are those the 2" or 2.5" drums? small bolt pattern or large? Thanks

I'm planning on doing mine this summer as well and I found this site that has some. I haven't call to check on the bolt pattern but I'm thinking that the years listed it is most likely the small bolt pattern. They are listed at $54.71. No fins on the picture they have but it's probably just a generic picture they put up and not the actual drum... I hope. Here's the link.

I found new replacements at NAPA for $45 each. Rock Auto has several listings for them from $17 to $90. They list the part number called out above in the first post for $88.79 each.

I agree with the Rock Auto post. They were substantially cheaper than anyone local...even after paying shipping. I completely rebuilt my 8.75 with Rock Auto parts (drums, shoes, springs, wheel cylinders, etc).

Thanks,
