1969 Cutlass Front wheel hub - drum brake

Hi,

Looking for an original GM front wheel hub.
My car is a 1969 Cutlass Supreme, 350ci, auto trans with drum brake.

The part should be in good shape with foremost no play on the spindle.

Thanks a lot for your help!!

If 69 still used the bell type drum,the hub & drum are hard to separate. The lugs have to be pressed out and back in with a special tool. I think 69 used this type but not positive. I may have a used front unit of this type if it is. I've seen guys go to the later type hub with the removable drum if need be.

I don't understand this statement as the play is adjusted out with the spindle nut. Did yours spin a bearing race inside?

69 does use bell drums. and I've seen both styles on 69, hub and drum one piece and the the drum separate and slides onto the hub as the pic shows.
