  • Looking for hub for 1968 firebird

    Have a 1968 Firebird with drum brakes. Need just the front hub with or without the studs.

    I'm drawing a blank right now but I thought the hub was part of the drum?

      I believe that is true for discs, but drums are separate.

      He're a rebuilder on eBay:

      Looks like NPD has kits:

            Most people would probably be smarter than me, and just convert over to disc, but I guess I'm not that smart. They are seperate pieces. Just found a guy out in my neck of the woods that says he has one, so thanks for the help. Have Cragars on there now, and gotta keep retightening, since my old one studs got loose and lugs were just spinning. Lucky it didn't fall off. Have to buy a new rim too, since they got all messed up too.

                  I found a guy in Richmond that has some used Firebird parts and I was able to get the drum and hub, actually only need the hub, but oh well. I looked at NPD, YearOne, Paddock, Classic Industries, and EBay and didn't see the hub on any of them. I would have thought it would be an easy thing to find, boy was I wrong. Guess no one wants me to stay with drum brakes in front. Thanks for everyone's help.
