front brake drums for 1970 Laurentian


I need 2 front brake drums for my '70 Laurentian. I have contacted a lot of places but no-one has a listing for the Laurentian. Should I be searching for a listing for a different car like Parisienne/Bonneville/Catalina or is there a Chevy product that would fit?  I have the original part number which is written on the drum. It is 3369532. Any suggestions would be helpful. I cannot count how many hours I've spent searching online and calling various places. I'm running out of ideas!

Thank you, ABC123!  Much appreciated!  I was thinking that there had to be a Chevy that was similar to my Laurentian.

Yep. As Randy mentioned every mechanical component on your Laurentian is Impala- suspension, brakes, engine etc.

Consider doing an upgrade to front disc brakes. Makes a huge difference in stopping power. Cliff

Thanks to everyone who has replied... and so quickly! You folks are great! So glad I joined! It is great to know that RockAuto has a discount code! As for the disc brake conversion, I would love to do that. I gave it a try last year but with the Laurentian, it was next to impossible to find anything. I did eventually track down a kit and ordered it. However, it wasn't the right one and I had to send it back. Maybe I'll look into it again.

Welcome here!

When you are ordering anything for chassis parts for your car, think of it this way.

Pretend you just undid all the body mounts and lifted the body up off the chassis. Anything still on the ground is same as 70 Impala. You will especially have issues if you are ordering stuff out of the US and don't use this rule.

And we love PEI! Been there a couple of times now. Went there once in the Laurentian. We were at the Atlantic Nationals in Moncton and decided to go to PEI afterwards. Beautiful province!

Thanks, seventy2plus2. I appreciate it very much!

I have just ordered the front drums for a 70 Chev Impala. Hoping they will fit! Just have to wait patiently for them to get here.

We have not featured a 1970 Full size in a couple of years now.

Would love to see another B-Body featured on this site.

If you would like a month with your car at the top of the page, contact Todd, send him some pictures and the story of your car.

At the beginning of the site there are sections dedicated to each year group of cars They have "Sticky" topics where you can find info about specific category's that have helped other members. In your case check 69 and 70 model years under the frame and suspension section Good reading.

I've been to Newfoundland a few times. If I didn't live on PEI, I'd choose to live there.

We have friends (born Newfoundlanders) that used to live on PEI, and went back and built a home in the Port Aux Basques area. Beautiful province!smile
