Spare Alko brake drum.

Hi all, I'm heading up to loch Fyne in June and was looking for an old brake drum that i could use as a spare incase one of the bearing fail on the way up. It needs to be type 2051 with the one shot nut. Obviously i'm not looking for a fee ride, nor do i want to pay £120 for a new one.

thanks in advance,

Paul

don't forget to get your pcd measurement up on here too - you don't want the right drum, but for it not to fit your wheel, especially if you only find out at the side of the road!

all the best

Hi Paul

Wouldn't surprise me, though I did bin a few recently (not what you want to hear, I'm sure!). Let me and Rogue Wave know what the PCD is and we'll see if one of us can help!

All the best

I have two brand new ones .
I had to buy them as i needed the bearings quick.
they have no bearing fitted now which were the largest alko do.
they have five stud holes compared to four on my original ones hence I didnt use them.
they were for a single axle trailer for a boat weighing 1200 kgs
hope this info helps
if any good i can measure them
regards geoff

Thank you all for taking the time to reply, much appreciated. The PCD measurement is 112m and its a 5 stud drum.

Treemendos- The drums you have there would be ideal but unfortunately the stub axles i have take the smaller sealed for life bearing, think the diameter is about 62mm?

thanks again

Paul

the stub axles can be removed by just removing the large nut and swoping the whole axle over.
then my drums will obviously fit.
you will need new bearings

Thanks Geoff, will keep this in mind. I think trying to change a stub axle at the side of a road might be pushing the boundries for me tbh plus it all looks pretty rusty back there. Thanks anyway though
