    I am looking for backing plates for my 54 ford....They measure 12.25"



    Any idea where I can find one? I only need one but will buy a set if necessary.

    I have front backing plates for a '52. If they will interchange with your '54, you can have 'em for the shipping. Let me know.

    If those don't work I've got everything from the front of a '56 when I changed over to discs...

    Interesting thought? 1961-67 Ford F-100 trucks use the same shoes as 52-59 Fords (not S.W's) if you could use those you could also end up with self adjusting brakes by using the F-100 hardware.
