Anybody know where to get the springs, adjusters etc for a 54 2 ton? I have wheel cylinders and shoes but nothing else.
Thanks for any help. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2009 Posts: 35 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Sep 2009 Posts: 35 | I am also looking for a source for the two rear brake cables used on the parking brakes og a 50 1 ton ?

I am wondering whether we can convert to other drum brakes from other years.... I am going to redo the system but don't really want to go to discs as I am hoping to keep the stock wheels.... | | | | | Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 5,152 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 5,152 | I'd investigate if they are the same as the 3/4-ton cables rashly assuming those are available.

It's true. I really don't do anything but browse the Internet looking for trouble... | | | | | Joined: Feb 2008 Posts: 320 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Feb 2008 Posts: 320 | I found almost all of the parts I needed from an oldtimer in PA. He had all NOS/refreshed for my 51. Estimates he has over 25,000 sets of vintage brakeshoes in his sheds. PM me if you want his number. He's 86 and doesn't do email.

Please let us know how to get a hold of the guy with the brake parts for 1 tons.....Thanks....GMGUY | | | | | Joined: Apr 2008 Posts: 502 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Apr 2008 Posts: 502 | Bowtie Bits has 1 ton brake parts. I picked up the pivot pin, retainers, the spring pins and the brackets that mount the shoes to the hub. Mine were missing on the front left of my 49 3800. He also has some brake shoes available. Just talk to Jeff he has a good knowledge of the parts. | | |
