I really don't know what they are called. I have tried Chevy Duty but the operators don't or can't seem to help me. My truck is a 1949 Chevy AD 1/2 ton. Please let me know if anyone can help me. Please email me at [email protected] Thank you so much. :confused: :confused:  | | | | | Joined: Mar 2006 Posts: 483 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2006 Posts: 483 | If you have one make the other one from a piece of flat metal | | | | | Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 641 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 641 | i went to the wrecking yard and got ones from a 66 chevelle they worked they are emergency brake push arms | | | | | Joined: Mar 2003 Posts: 181 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2003 Posts: 181 | Did you try Kantor out of NJ? you can look them up on line.
