Brownmule -- welcome to the Stovebolt Page and Semper Fi!

You're in luck! I have both a '49 1-ton and a '49 1.5-ton and I've found all my brake parts at either American Classic, Jim Carter or NAPA (Mostly NAPA).

Also, if you're out of Schlitz on any of those, look around for the local shop that works on the big trucks (semi's). My local big truck mechanic, Mr. Cusic, was able to reline my brake shoes for the big '49 and find me a few other things as well.

Don't be afraid to call any of the parts vendors and ask them about stuff for your truck -- just because the catalogs cater to 1/2-tons doesn't mean they don't have stuff for your truck. And be sure to check out the other parts of this web site -- especially the Links Page (link is in the menu at the top of this page).

Again, welcome to our web site and keep asking questions. There are stupid questions but I dare you to ask any here!
