Correct Front Drums for 65 F250 2WD

I'm having a hard time locating the correct front drums for my 65 F250. It has the 352, and is not a camper special. It has the 12 1/8th drums with the 2 " shoes. When inquiring about replacements the parts houses tell me that those are for the 4WD not a 2WD. Is it possible Ford used whatever was in stock at the time.

those are 2WD drums...drum size is also the same, but are different for 4WD vs 2WD...theres 2 different drums for 4WD depending on the load rating of the front axle...2WD...only one drum...
Ask if the drums they show are hub AND drum....but the shoe size for all is the same size...

Thanks, If anyone knows a good supplier besides LMC. LMC might be alright but I have received some poor parts from them before.
