I picked these up last year with an uncut 30s front suspension and bought all the Timken stuff. The suspension got stolen from my shop in KS, but these were in my shop in CO. Can anyone tell me a year range and what they came off of? They are 5-5.5" bolt pattern, I think 2" brake shoes. The drums have 3 cooling ridges on the outside casting and still have the old bearings/races & seals in them. Also, I need to know what they are worth these days, I am trying to raise some badly needed cash. I'll post them up on the for sale area once I figure this all out. Also, they have dust from a body shop on them, so that's why they have that weird white look..... Thanks Greg - All the new parts, notice the original Ford outer races still in the wax..... &
42-48 Ford range. Let see new springs Brake rebuild kit New brake shoes Bearings seals Don't know what the surface of the drums are like though Thinking $300 or so.
sorry, no...those shoes and the backing plate are the later `46-`48 . the hubs drums are too oldmule , you are missing..or at least you didn't put in your picture...a few small parts to make them complete , but they are available in repo
I wouldn't even begin to know what is missing...... Thanks for pointing that out. Now I hope to be able to sell them.... I have a leaf sprung/ I beam axle to use on my 18 Dodge - which won't be started for quite a while now. Or at least when I get some income back.
Those are 42-48 Ford P***enger and 42-47 Ford Pickup front brakes. You seem to have everything but a couple shor retainer clips and the cams that go in the holes in the heel of the shoes. That setup should sell for $250-350.
Thanks I just posted them on the sale board. You guys are awesome, I really appreciate the help. Greg
Pasadenahotrod, I have a set of these brakes, and have everything except the cams that go in the bottom of the shoes, can you suggest anywhere to find them? HemiDeuce.
The backing plates you have,don't have a bottom adjusters. It only has the upper adjusters,the lower anchors are fixed and act as pivots. Looks like the only thing missing are the spring clips that hold the shoes to the backing plate. ..........Jack
