C'mon man keep up. He's lazy.

Your phone and computer both have calculators...

True but they are only as smart as the person using them.

All is probably done, but, I've read that often times the factory put 2 1/2 inch shoes in the lighter trucks(2500 Vs 3500) but kept 3 1/2 inch drums. Also, the wheel cylinders between the 2500 and 3500 single wheel bolt up, with the 3500 having a slightly larger piston.

There's a write up on it, and it includes Dodge trucks of the same vintage as I guess dodge bought their brakes from gm

Aside from this one post by a guy I don't know on a forum I've never visited, I can't find any information to support the Chevy brakes on Dodge trucks claim. i am also skeptical of the wrong shoes being intentionally installed in larger drums. Have any more credible sources?

No, sir, I do not. Can't hurt to check though, right?

Not trying to pick a fight, the info just seems a little suspect. I'm going to see about cross referencing some part numbers between the trucks.

Hey, fair enough. I'm not trying to say it's a sure thing either. I have a 1500.iread the whole thing before I realized it was for the bigger trucks. But I'll probably end up with a 14 bolt rear anyway
