Got a very nice mail from Geoff at Alretta.
He asked me for some info, and stated, he had everything for these old trucks...
Ulf-
Yes, I can help a guy from Sweden!
but you need to help me to confirm what you've got...
A picture of the master cylinder, a casting number off the side or bottom? Do you know wheel brake sizes, gross vehicle weight rating? As we assemble data, all the answers fall into place for you to get the correct parts.
I have shipped extensively to Europe, so not to worry that you are a land too far...
I should be able to supply a master cylinder assembly, and probably also the hydrovac, any wheel cylinders, the hub seals or bearings, brake hoses, and maybe some additional items. This is my area of expertise.
As for a kit, the industry as a whole is discontinuing them for some time now, and in any event, if the bore has porosity, then the kit will not seal anyway. I always believe in the sanctity of a new cylinder!
So snap me a couple of clear shots, on or off the vehicle, and get me a casting number if possible, as well the build data for brake sizes at the wheel (shoe width x diameter of the drum across the shoes).
I think I shall surprise you with what is possible!
Happy Easter,
Yours,
Geoff Rosenberg
