53-56 F100 front brake drums. Help needed.

[TSH]

Hi all.
I need some help regarding 53-56 F100 front drums. I ordered new drums from RockAuto, but they are too narrow in depth. Measured from front face of drum, they are 77 mm (3,03") deep. My old ones are 89 mm (3,5") deep.
Do anyone have a link, part number for the correct drums?
Regards Thomas

I would put them on and see if any shoe shows at the edge. Often, there is about a 1/4 band of drum at the edge that the shoe never touches. Make sure the hub surface is very clean, then add a bit of anti seize.

What is the width of the shoes? The drum dia. is 11". correct?
