1 Piece / 2 Piece Drums?
Im after some more info guys! Really trying to get my head around the rear drums.
All the pictures I see online have the drums secured to the drive hub by slotting over the wheel bolt studs. However, it seems my drums (from 1.8 cvh
sierra estate) have the drive hub fixed to the back face of the drum by what looks like rivets (big molten rivets, not blind jobbies!). Even the
digrams of the drums that should replace mine dont show it.
Do have some random drums that are rare or for some reason different to most others. I have wheel bolts not studs, so any sierras have studs as
standard?
Like these for example these bust be from drums, as they are push in and dont have caliper mounts:

i've not really spent time looking at sierra drive shafts and drum brakes, but the caliper mounts wouldn't be on any of thise parts.
they'd be on the bearing carrier, which isn't shown there.
from what you're saying about the drums being riveted to the hubs, you mean you can't remove the drums without drilling the rivets out?
5 studs on the sierra P100 perhaps? or did that keep the live axle?

IIRC the P100 was live axle
It looks like the Midget is winning at the moment......

bearing carriers are the 2 units beneath the hubs!

edit: ignore me, sorry. found photos of someone using a original sierra set up, and yes the caliper brackets would have been cast into the bearing
carrier as per your pics
