1940-48 Ford Brake Parts

Time to put wheel cylinders and shoes on the back of the Lyndwood. Who supplies the best Ford brake parts? I've got backing plates and drums, need all the other bits. Thanks Bob

 

I have been using brake parts from Carquest (wagner products) with very good results. I use silicone fluid. Don't be surprised to countries of mfg from around the world. Last time Isreal, Italy and Brazil were there in Wagner boxes. Also if you are doing a 39-41 used 46-48 cylinders-they stop a little better. Also be careful about linings-some of the modern linings are way too hard and don't work good

 

Supprised that my NAPA dealer had a listing.

I've used the NAPA stuff and it is fine, also using silicone Dot 5 with no problems ever.
