Need help with my huck brakes. Attached are pictures. Looking at the pic in the manual, there appears to be a center set of braces that I don't have. Also, for the park brake, I got the arms and spreaders from bendix brakes but they don't seem to fit the hucks. Do I need huck e-brake arms and spreaders? The brakes work but am I missing some center pieces as well?

Yes, you need the spreader bar and associated compression spring and the pivot arm with a washer and cotter pin for the ebrake.

Thanks for the advice and the pics. Looks like the huck spreader is a rod rather than the flat bar used to spread the bendix brake system...I am on the search for two spreaders with springs for 1950 half ton huck brakes!
