I wonder why they stopped making these? I remember getting them next day at pretty much any parts store in the late 90s. The demand seems to be there, wonder why they don't make them?
My friend needs the hub and drum unit. We've found the drums, just no hub and they were sold as a unit before.

These were off a 69 Charger RT that was running and driving the owner put a tube front end on very nice condition. 11”

I spent alot of money redoing the front 11" brakes on my RT......
If I was to do it again, it would definetely be discs......

Factory original parts are always King .

Dadsbee,, Thanks for the shoutout , but my last N.O.S. HUB & DRUMS sold about a decade ago (Heck, they haven't been made in fourty (40) years ago, such that I was the only one on this planet who had them for decades....

I still have over one hundred N.O.S. Hubs and Drums --- but not the
11" x 3" Mopars......

Hubs are Used World ONLY --- And someone up above ^^^ --- has a whole slew of them.....

I still have *** N.O.S. Brake Drums *** and *** N.O.S. *** Asbestos ***
Brake Shoes for the 11" x 3 " application.....

I used to work at an auto parts store way back when and we had to remove the studs and re-install the hubs when required and they the drum MFGs had a stipulation that if you replaced no more that 2-3 studs the unit had to be replaced as a unit which meant more money and also had to Turn and true the drums!
Heck you cant even find the tools needed to reswedge the drums correctly as i am always looking just to have them is all you need to correctly do the job with a Hydraulic press.
And disc was another matter as they had a stipulation on those too.
Now its cheap China crap and you get what you pay for as pricing.

It sounds like someone needs to step up and reproduce these.

That is your job, Nxcoupe.....

But, I will warn you in advance..... You will have to make 100 of them, at least.... And then, are you making LEFTY and Righties ??? Because, if you are making LEFTYs , you will have to reproduce the LEFTY Stud, too....

You will probably sell from 0 to 4 each year.... which means you will have a 60 to 80 year supply, and depending on how much profit you want to make, it will probably take you 30 to 50 years to finally crack the break even plateau....

If you charge more for them, you might make break even in only 25 years, but are you going to rape people for price ??? The sky is the limit ......

And, then , what country are you going to reproduce them in ??? What company / outfit are you going to employ here in the United States.... or
Are you going straight Chineseum ????

Let us know what YOU are going to do ..... ( My guess is nothing.... )

And that is why there will never be a reproduction of them....

(Did we discuss that all the people that do disc brake conversions will not need them --- even less people to sell them to .......)

Who pissed in your wheaties? I've seen multiple want to buy ads over just the past few months. Why do you think so many people are swapping to discs? Can't get the parts. The thing to do would be to reproduce the hub and then use the already being made 3" front drums. At least a few places showed them. Modernize.
I'm out. I just made a suggestion.
