Is it possible to use ford wire wheels with a small drum rearend and full floating hubs? If so, are there any special steps or parts needed? Thanks, Art Gebeau.

The only challenge I foresee is with the parking brake. However, you may be able to remove the large drum from the wire wheel hub and redrill and install a small drum on the wire wheel hub so you can use the original small drum parking brake. Haven't tried it but think it should work.

Walt, thank you, I will be trying that as soon as a few more parts arrive. Art.
