    I seemed to have misplaced the brake shoe anchor pin part# 2028 during my tear down. Does anyone have one lying around? IMG_0247.jpg IMG_0248.jpg

    The help section in the Auto Zone and O’Reilly around here is not near as helpful as they used to be.

    Curious where you do find them...I was looking for the same part plus one other that I couldn't find in my local parts stores for a different brand vehicle... I will likely just rob the parts I need out of a spare axle I have, but am struggling to get the drums off of it so far...

    Dorman has been around for over 100 years and makes thousands of aftermarket parts here is their online catalog https://www.carid.com/dorman/brake-parts/?fromBrandPage=1 Since most of the automotive parts stores have access to warehouses it is best if you look up what you need and then armed with the part number go to your local parts store with it.

    I'd bet almost any drum brake system using a Bendix system will work.
    My son is rebuilding an old drag/land speed car with a 57 Pontiac rear end. It had no internal parts left for an emergency brakes. I had installed an 8.8 Explorer rear in my 56 Victoria and was able to use the 95 Ford F-150 drums with the original 56 cables. The original 56 has 11" and so does the Pontiac. All the emergency parts fit. All we had to buy were the cables and attaching parts to the backing plates.
    My 56 uses wiper blade from a tri-5 Chevrolet at Danchuk because I can drive over in 10 minutes. Auto manufacturers use many of the same suppliers now as they did then. It not rocket science.

    Dorman has them, just make sure of thickness of it
    Otherwise not enough room for spring hooks to go on. I probably have some in a box with dorman p#but finding them might be a “quest “.
    Be playing in the garage today. See what I can do/find
