Hy rust master, I found two listings, depending on whether it has a 5000lb. or 7000lb. front axle
5000lb. axle = BH36697 - o.a.l. 24 13/16", this one has the hex for tightening the connection to the wheel cylinder back from the end
7000lb. axle = BH36696 - o.a.l. 26 3/8", those are Raybestos numbers, hope that helps.

My Napa catalog shows the same numbers as 3B,s minus the prefix letters.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.

Rockauto.com has those parts for $39 and $43 (Do a "Part Number Search" - top menu). Their shipping costs are low, parts arrive in 3-4 days, and no sales tax, unless you live in Wisconsin.

I just have to figure out what axel I have. How can I do that? is it just the GVW of the front on the tag? mine does have the hex on the end of the hose where it screws into the wheel cylinder ( wheel cylinder end of the hose is threaded )

On my 67 C50, I used all standard earls plumbing fittings and lines, and adapted it over where needed.

On the front, I used a banjo bolt, with banjo, and a 90 degree angle brake line as a replacement for the special threaded ends.
