Well sure, but used in unknown condition vs the prospect of finding NOS is to me a no brainer. Kevin's are a sure thing, admittedly, but still on the donor, and if near spec once pulled will solve the problem. But what if they aren't.

And besides, for my part, I get a kick out of doing the research. Stu

 

I have contacted Kevin with a PM. We are in the process of determining condition and price to help me make a good decision. When I started this thread I was curious about all my options. With my rebuild being my first, I have a lot to learn. I have received so much positive advise from members and I am for ever grateful. Thank you!

 

The problem with relining an existing out-of-spec drum is that you have to cut it further for a clean surface. I wouldn't consider this for anything but a show truck.

The condition of Kevin's drums aren't known unless he pulls them. They may be no better.

 

I understand the condition of Kevin's drums are unknown until he pulls them off the truck, but the thread kept building with other suggestions and no mention that his offer had been noticed.

Of course they may be no better than those they would replace, but I kept following to see how that would turn out, and it was not mentioned again until I asked. I even gave Kevin reps for offering to look.

They look great

 

 

Outstanding!! Stu

 

Thanks Kevin for the pictures and keeping me up to date on getting the drums off the Truck. I just want everyone following this thread to know that you have been great to work with and I appreciate you contacting me about the drums. I will PM or text you soon. Dave

 

Dave, I'm assuming you got those drums from Kevin, but wanted to revive this thread just in case you or anyone else had new info about the C2TZ-1126-D drum dilemma. I have my own 66 F350 with these drums.

 

I still have the drums as shipping was quite expensive and Dave found some from someone else. Send me a PM Kevin
