brake parts

Post by jkford45 Thu Jul 02, 2015 9:59 am

I got the front brake cable from Rock auto Part like someone suggested and it looks like it will fit. Surprisingly it looks like the rear cables are still good. I need the (drivers side) part inside the drum that the brake cable hooks up to and expand the brakes. for some reason this was missing on the truck since I got it over 20 years ago. I have never had a parking brake on it . it will be nice to have it working. if any one has one of thase parts let me know.

I've got it, what size drums are on your truck? Not sure if the part is the same on both but I could look, I have both sizes. 9" rearend trucks had larger brakes than the 7.25" rears. 9" rearend has a center section that bolts to the front, 7.25 has a cover that bolts to the rear of the center section.
