14 bolt brakes

You can at least measure the inside diameter of the drum from inside the wheel.
IIRC, the 14bff has three brake options, the small (~11") , the large (~13") SRW, and the DRW (also 13", but 3.5" wide shoes instead of 2.5".)
The small size is about the same diameter as a 10- or 12- bolt rear, but has different width shoes.
I still don't recommend it, but if you only have the one vehicle and can't take it apart, then drive to the parts house ... maybe.

x2 on this little 3/4 ton was the 11" drums. so if 13" on yours just buy both shoes and return the non used when done thay cheep.
and if you measure backing plate dia it will be a inch or so bigger than size of drum inside.
