Hi guys, I have had these front brakes in my stash for years and don't even remember where I had gotten them. But anyway, I am gonna run them and need Hardware, etc but don't know what kind of brakes they are, or the vintage. I have heard that they may be F1 or F100. Please help !
Shoes look to be self energizing, so F100 is my best guess, as I think that bigger pattern is the 5.5" bolt circle? Probably redrilled for the small pattern mags at one time.
F1 was self energizing Bendix as well. It looks like an F1 hub to me..but I'm not an expert. Take a look here: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=723007 attached is a photo of an F1 I pulled apart.
I think they are F1 as well. Are they 11"? They don't work with the 46-8 spindles shown. Wheel cyl interference. I cut mine down but need to cut them some more and use earlier king pins.
My rig is like post #2. The spindle overlaps the wheel cylinder. I had to shorten the top of the spindle. Maybe other wheel cylinders might have cleared?
