  • Brake drum needed!

    Posted by Dennis & Jackie on December 28, 2018 at 7:38 am

    I need a drive axle brake drum for my 1990 XL. I pulled the wheels and hub off to fix a wheel seal and the hub is grooved and uneven. I had the linings replaced since they were oil soaked and replaced the brake chamber but I cannot find a drum. Any ideas?

    Thanks!

    Take it to a truck parts place and match it up.

    Tried that already, shows obsolete in their system. I tried looking online too, nothing comes up.

    If Prevost is unable this might be your best and last chance other than a bus junkyard:

    Post the results because there are a lot of drum brake coaches on this forum. I think your drive axle drums are 14″ X 10″ wide.

    Jon,

    Thanks for the advice, Luke found one for me. Good price in my opinion, $298 plus the freight. This drum weighs 170 pounds, I thought the price would be higher but this is great. Happy New Year to everyone, glad I joined the community!
