Hello,

Does anyone have the maximum allowable inside diameters on a 1969 LeSabre 2 Dr?

This is my first post on the TeamBuick site. I'm in search of info to see whether or not I can continue to use the brake drums currently on my car. If the front and rear drums on a 1969 LeSabre 2Dr are the same as those on a 1967 then I can use the reference found on TeamBuick.com. If not then I'll continue digging or hopefully someone here has the info.

Respectfully,

Tim
 
Thank you, Bob and Frankenbuick. I did find part numbers but didn’t see tolerances. I’ll take another look. Thank you to you both!
 
Thank you!

Bob said:
They max. tolerances are in the '67 manual, and are the same as the '69 manual. The '67 manual brake section is here:
https://www.teambuick.com/reference/library/67_chassis/files/50-a.php
tolerances are near the top of page 50-4.

I believe the manuals may not display on tablets and cell phones.

Thank you, Bob. I was just looking at that portion of the '67 manual this morning based on your previous reply. I can finally get this project moving forward again!

Thank you!

12.000 is NEW --- 12.090 is "Discard" --- going beyond .090 is dangerous, as the shoes will push out too far, the wheel cylinders will explode, and you'll
have a mess on your hands, if you don't hit something / someone......
