On a 69 Charger R/T with 11 inch drum brakes (power) all the way around, are the rear drums 11 X 3 or are they 11 X 2 1/2 ?

Oldschool: Concerning the rear 10 inch drum shoes used with front disc brakes... Would the rear 10 inch drum shoes from the factory have been 1-3/4 inches wide or 2-1/2 inches wide? I'm working on a 68 Charger. Thanks!

B bodies with 10" brakes have 2 1/2" wide shoes, the 1 3/4" were used on A bodies.
Pardon me but my karma just ran over your dogma.
