that may be the issue... but there was a half inch difference between the sellers and mine... do you happen to know the diameter of your hub .. of the inner brake drum?

Here we go

Early '61/62 (left) and late 63-66 (right) hubs

Early dimension

Late dimension

The brake plates with shoes interchange between the two brake drums.

How about you post some pictures of the two you are comparing? It always helps, when you are asking questions, to provide as much information as possible.....

What's the verdict?
Have you measured yours?
Photographs?
