I found him on the classified page and contacted him. He carries 67-69 mustang rearends....... I need 65-66 V8(5lug) axle. Sent from my...

Thanks.... I did. They were for 68-89 mustang..... which are the wrong length. Needle in a haystack! Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B....
Awesome! Need just 1, the passenger side. It’s a 28 spine, 5 lug, drum brakes. 28.25 inches long! Hard to find.... think it’s a 65-66 mustang...
Ordering one from them Monday! Spoke to their Tech guy and this is the way to go! Thank you sir for the recommendation. Sent from my iPhone...
You would think that..... I have search on FB marketplace and placed an add on 8 different car pages...... nothing. I’ve even called mustang...
Apparently we both are light years behind [emoji23]. I’ve called every salvage yard in a 300 mile radius and they all laugh. I really thought...
Thank you! I’ve looked at at an aftermarket axle and honestly, that’s probably the avenue I need to take. Measurements to be sent are simple....
How can I tell exactly what Axle I need? I’ve got an highboy coupe with an axle that suffered a spun bearing on the passenger side. I was...
What do you mean by “clean out” and how do you do it? I’m having the same issue. I’ve greased the pedal, but not having much luck with mine...
No sir.... not for this application. Smaller stroke would be better, but this works great. Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
Im dealing with the same issue on a 33 dodge, same pedal set up. One thing that helped mine a little was to lengthen the adjustable, threaded rod...
Sir.... your the winner. At the end of the day, this is EXACTLY what I found in my car. I bought 2 new brake cylinders for $13.86 and installed...
Brakes are fixed! The overall culprit were the rear drum brake cylinders. I bought a pair for $14 last night and replaced the old ones. Bled...
Thanks! I’m just about there already. I reworked the brake pedal to insure 6:1, pulled and checked the new master cylinder, replaced brake...
We sold the car in 1994. It had a couple of owners after that. The car is a great driver. It’s been from Texas to the LARS and back. There is...
Yes sir, but it has for years without any problem. It’s a brand new MC as well. Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
Surprisingly, with little to no stroke inside the MC, the car will stop...... it just takes a ton of effort. I’m putting the MC back in the car...
I get it with the gauges. But,there is absolutely zero stroke inside the MC and very little pedal movement with the hard break. I already know...
After looking at the pedal ratio, which is correct, I’m finding that the only time I’m getting any movement from the rod into the MC is when I...
I moved the positioning to that lower setting and increased the adjustable (threaded) rod that moves into the MC hoping to get more stroke. I...
Awesome! I had no idea on the adapter. I have a brand new dual MC (mustang) that might just be the solution. I really appreciate the advice!...
I have the car on jack stands. I’ve spun every wheel and applied brake and all seem to be working well..... it just takes a lot of muscle to get...
I thought about bore size as well. It’s 1 1/16 on these......which is bigger than I would want, but to get the 3 hole flange it’s what I’m stuck...

My dad built a 1933 Dodge Hiboy 35 years ago. I recently bought the car back, but the brakes are acting up. Long story longer..... the car is...
Yes sir. It was Maroon when Niblett built it originally. I even have pictures of it flamed after that. It went to another owner who repainted...
