    Smile 52 Brake Drums

    I have a 1952 super and I need to replace the brake drums. A friend has a Roadmaster
    and will give the drums. Are they the same size? I know they share the same body from the cowl back.

    Thanks

    Lightbulb Front Brakes

    The front brakes on a Roadie are larger(wider) you will need the entire brake assembly including the backing plate. It is a simple modification (bolt on) and will give you better stopping power.
