The 2 3/4" shoes will fit the GMC drums.Some of the GMC clubs have a
modification sheet that describes how to fit them. the GMC drum is actually
2 3/4" wide.

Yep The GMC Heritage Cruisers. We had a technical seminar at our Rust
Buster rally this week end and one of our members demonstrated the 2 3/4"
shoes and mods. He says it costs about $100 for all of the parts to convert
the rear bogies. It uses all GM parts. I won't steal his thunder and will
send him a private e-mail and ask if he will explain.
