M38 rear brake drums to CJ exchange

javierv8 · Post by **javierv8** » Sun Jul 19, 2015 4:12 am

Hello... I'm really tired to pull out rear hub plates of CJ's just to inspect or cleaning brakes. Its posible to use a set of M38 rear drums over these hub plates to replace stock CJ's drums in stock CJ's axles??
Thanks!!!

Good morning Javier,
Which CJ, what year? 9" drums or aftermarket?

Can you post a photo?

Brian

Hello Brian: It's a CJ3A (nearly sure 1953), with DANA 44 axle and stock drums...
About pics... tomorrow will take it.
Thanks!!

You may be able to convert to the M38 hub, drum and brakes/backplate but I cannot say if just swapping in only the M38 hub & drum will work with the CJ brake and backplate.
