2 quick questions

What is the min drum thickness for rear on my f250? I can't seem to find a number on the drum itself.

And, will a WC14521 and WC14522 (https://www.amazon.com/Raybestos-WC1.../dp/B000C7232Y) fit the rear brakes on my truck? I found a place once that listed those part numbers but can't find it any longer(closed the tab). However, Amazon says it doesn't fit, but I'm not sure I believe that.

Thanks!

If I recall correctly, stamped/cast specs on drums and discs weren't required until a law was passed in Massachusetts, 1971. It kinda spread out from there.

BTW, I bought the cylinders for my F100 @ NAPA, they were about the same price as RockAuto.

Always a good idea to check around. The internet makes it easy. Depending on what it is and my time frame, I like to shop locally if possible. Our sponsors are next in line. Don't forget the shipping and possible core charges.
