I don't know if i'm being tricked, or i'm just going crazy... I have a 71 Dodge Dart with factory 9" finned drum brakes. The brakes measure 2.25" wide. I went to rockauto.com to find new brakes, but could only find 2" and 2.5" 9" brakes for my car... I double-checked in a service manual, and it listed 2.25". Then I went to two autoparts stores, and they also only had 2" and 2.5" 9" brakes for my car. Am I going crazy? Or are they labeled differently on rockauto/at the autoparts store? |

How wide are the linings? Have you taken the drums off and looked at them. Maybr they just overlap the backing plates by .25". |
