Could i upgrade rear from 10inch brakes to 11 ? Would i have to change anything other then drums, backing plates, and hardware?

Thanks
Will

Should just bolt on. I bagged an 11" setup off of a later Chrysler and it bolted right on.

Super East Swap, especially when you have all the parts.

If you're going with 11's in the rear hopefully you have 11's in the front or discs.

FYI: My 68 RR is a factory disc brake car and it came with 10" rear drums, probably because 11's would have had a tendency to lock up. My 69 RR is a drum brake car and it's 11" all around.

I use an adjustable proportioning valve on most all of my brake swaps.
