Looking for replacement hubs for front drum spindles, a couple of the studs on mine are working loose. I see dr. diff has some billet ones for $300, but I'm more interested in stock replacements. Is there a good source for these or should I be looking for used take-offs?
 
Not sure of a source but you could probably get some lug studs with a larger knurl. If the stock studs are .635 knurl maybe step up to something like .650?
 
Wild Cat Auto Wreckers in Oregon is a all Mopar yard. Stephen's Performance in Alabama also sells used Mopar parts.
 
there is a guy in NY that sell new old stock studs for drum brakes. left and right I just bought 2 set from him at Carlisle. I can get you his number this evening.
 
there is a guy in NY that sell new old stock studs left and right. I bought 2 sets from him in Carlisle. His name is MIKE . you'll have to have them swedge into the hub. Brake warehouse in MN does it for 60.00 at hub. I can give you his number later this evening. I'll have to look for it. He's a member on this site
 
Want to sell these to funknut but after looking at pictures I noticed that there is no shoulder for swagging, threads go right to hub. If he uses them as is would it be a problem?? The drum would be held by center of hub. T

hese are 3" studs.
 
Following this, in case there is a source for replacement hubs?
 
You will find occasional NOS - and they WILL be pricey.
Some used stuff out there also; the usual "buyer beware" on those, of course.
Aftermarket replacement parts world does not make them, hasn't in a long time now.
You can always do what I just did and put up a "WTB" thread here - that's how I got
mine.
I just went through this whole ordeal after needing a hub for my GTX:

I just learned more than one lesson about hubs for drum brakes....they are NOT all
created the same, nor are all the different lug/stud sizes but Dorman probably still makes a
stud that will work for you as long as your hub is good otherwise.
