We're new to Airstreams, but super excited about our recent purchase of a
1957 Overlander. In preparing to tow, and get ready for it's restoration, I've noticed the drum brake hubs are out of balance (with the wheels off). Bearings look fine, although grease seals are missing.
It is a 12x2 Dexter, with 6 lugs.
My thoughts were to replace the hubs, as well as the whole brake assemblies. Can I buy any 12x2 hubs from a trailer supply store, or what should I be looking for that will fit a '57? (!). All the AS parts websites don't seem to list anything that fits a 50's model.
Many thanks!
