As for rear wheel cylinders: I have twice bought a pair of '65-'66 520 wheel cylinders on ebay from seller: vintageimportsinc.com1999. Mine were NRC brand, made in Japan, in the box, but the part number is illegible on either box. The seller worked with me on adding a second part to the single part listed and combined shipping for me. The wheel cylinders worked perfectly for my '63 L320. Incidentally, I ended up ordering drums for a 1969 521 from Autozone. They look a bit different and some of the dimensions don't correspond to the 320 drums, but after assembly, they seem like they'll work just fine. The axle I'm working on is still out of the truck, but I'll follow up when it's all back together.

Thanks for all the responses, guys. I think I'll order the oldest model-fitting drums available from my local parts place and just give'r. I'll let you guys know how it goes in case anybody wants to know.

Hello 320ers, I had just started a thread in Parts Wanted, but now I think I could use some help to determine which parts I should actually want, so I veered into this specialized area. I have made a good faith effort to search this site before starting this thread, but I did not find the information I am looking for. I am in need of two rear brake drums for my 1964 L320. I was under the previous impression that 320 and 520 drums were identical, but now I see that they have different part numbers: 40206-32204 and 40206-14900 respectively. So they are not identical, but I still hold the unattributed presumption that they are interchangeable. As for later year models 521 and 620's drums, I had the impression that they were by dimension incompatible. I'd like to hear from members who have successfully used later year models' drums on 320s. It seems 520 drums will take much more effort for me to obtain at the moment, so I am especially interested to know if anybody on here has used the 521 drums and can tell me for from experience that they work in this application. And incidentally, I really like the idea of upgrading to disks, but it's really not in the budget for the foreseeable future. Thanks for reading! Please respond if you can help.

Thanks for the replies. I have been searching for information on 320/520/521/620 compatibility for a few hours, but I haven't yet come across anything conclusive. My local auto parts store told me that the 521 drum dimensions were different, and it may or may not work with the 320. Rockauto hasn't got anything for the 320 or 520 at the moment, and I'm hesitant to spend on a 521 drum without a greater sense of surety. twiztedintentions: Did you buy 520 or 521 drums, and did they fit your 320 with no problems? I think I may open the question in the 320 section and see which combinations members have made to work. Failing that, I may have the local auto parts store order me in one 521 drum and do the gamble myself.

PM sent.

Hello all, as the title says I'm trying to find a pair of brake drums for my 1964 L320. My understanding is that 520 drums are the same, but 521 drums are not. They need to be in good condition, and I'll need them shipped to Reno, NV 89502. Please let me know if you've got a pair of drums that you can part with and hopefully we can make a deal. Thanks!

I'm sorry to hear that you have to move. I feel anxious sometimes thinking about what it would require if I had to make an unplanned move of my fleet off of the property that I rent. I wish you were closer because I'd take a bunch of stuff off your hands. I may be interested in having some smaller stuff shipped, like inside door handles, window cranks and the plastic trim pieces for them. I'm also looking for a functional heater core to replace a leaky one. Let me know if you have anything like that and wish to go through the trouble of parting out. Anyway, good luck with the sale and the move.
