A GMC pickup :P

The only other application I know of with 5-on-5 bolt pattern is the 1977-1996 Caprice/Impala, and they could be had with 11" drums.  But I have no idea if these drums will fit.
Caprice's a plenty over here so i'll take a look...and of course the GMC pickups but they are never found in yards over here... ;)

The truck brake drums are physically larger by about 35mm. I've never tried to fit them so I can't say whether they'd work or not.

Just curious, what's the popular truck of choice over there?

Thanks for that Vile,

Most popular over here from what i see daily is the Toyota Hi-lux and Nissan Navara.
Not my cup of tea so i have to search the classic pages and buy a rough old truck then spend a year making it nice... ;D
