11 inch drums

[eldubb440]

did 11 inch rear drums come on 383 cars? such as Super Bees?........ I was under the impression this was a 440/hemi thing

Yes, Road Runners and Super Bees included heavy duty brakes. 11” drums all around.

My 69 RR has 11" drums all around, no PB, and uses a .8 ohm ballast resistor.

No they did not, they had 10x2.5" rears with disc. The only B and E body disc brake car that had 11x2"5" rears in 1970 was TA and AAR

68 GTX 440 auto car with front discs come with 11 inch rear drums?

 

[R413]

All 66-70 factory front disc brake B and E bodies come with 10x2.5" rear drums. Engine and trans do not matter.

Only exception is T/A and AAR have 11x2.5" rears.

 

[T2R9]

Disc brake cars had 10" drums in the rear. 11" drums were standard unless the front discs were checked as an option.

Have seen 4 wheel 11" on early Chargers w/383. Usually a big rad and tow package type thing

 

[eldubb440]

lmao..... My GTX has been apart so long, I couldn't find my 11 inch backing plates ........ cause it didn't come with them

Towing package will trigger heavy duty brakes. Had a 73 Charger SE 400Hp car with a towing package with front discs and 11" rear drums.

You can order 11" drum brakes on any b-body.

I had a 4 door Belvedere with 11" brakes, sway bar, and 3.23 sure grip 383 2bbl. Drove great

11x3 front
11x2.5 rears
If 4 wheel drum brakes

No they did not, they had 10x2.5" rears with disc. The only B and E body disc brake car that had 11x2"5" rears in 1970 was TA and AAR

Maybe my car was changed? It did have what I think was an E-body rear end (? - leaf springs forced onto not saddles about 1” to far out each side) when I bought it
