I get my big bolts parts from Jim Carters . I'm waiting for my rear wheel brake cylinders to come in than I'll put on the new master cylinder / front and rear wheel cylinders . You'll need a axle nut socket to keep from buggering up the six lug axle nut - replacment costs about $40 each so be careful (1st hand knowlege) . Look in the tech tips for help on some of the brake/axle questions . Axle nut/socket info is in a post in this or the general truck questions forum. Hope this helps and have fun . ED H

Although I do not have a truck yet, I would reccommend Jim Carter hands down. He has helped us out, as we have been looking at trucks and have run into many of the same problems: Brakes. My dad met him at the Hershey, PA swap meet (we're less then 50 miles from hershey) and talked to him quite a bit on tips and tricks. His catalog has everything you can imagine and then some. Go with Jim Carters, you wont be dissapointed.


No 'bolt yet, but if you'd like to help me out with that, send me a message! Or check out my wanted add in the swap meet.

Alretta has more large truck related brake parts. Jim Carter would definitely be my choice for trucks 1 ton, & smaller.
