looking for 1963 GT 6lug hubs

I have a 63 Globetrotter that I am looking for a new brake hub for, one of mine has a chunk broke off which throws it out of balance..I heard that its the same as a 6 lug chevrolet but not sure if theres any truth to that or not...any information would be grateful.

How's your overall axle condition? If its original its most definately needing replacement. It might be best to research some of the axle replacement options on here and upgrade to modern brakes etc. broken hub would likely mean some pretty heavy stress at some point, reason enough perhaps to replace the entire axle. It's a pretty easy process. www.inlandrv.com has them as do a few other companies.
