Front drum brakes
 

Help! Has anyone completed a front disc brake conversion and have the original spindle and drum brake assembly left over? If so let me know I'd like to take it off your hands if possible!

I probably have some somewhere I'd give you but the shipping to you from me would be cost prohibitive. Jim

Have you tried using greyhound to ship before?

Really? you are going to egg a guy to buy a membership to try to get some parts that most people are just going to scrap... :rolleyes:

It sucks but it is the forum rules. And this isn't the parts board anyway. You can buy a 6 month membership for only $15.

I would not want to break any rules here cause I'm all about this place and helping out people here. I figure there might be a few that would agree with that statement. Would that include me trying to gift some parts since I did offer to do so? Jim

Forgive me for breaking any rules. There is a bolt that holds the front wheel cylinder and backing plate to the spindle. This bolt also has a peg for the brake hardware (see the pic). All I need are 2 of these, and since it is an obselete part that is not reproduced I thought I'd try and ask here.

I think that shipping of the grey dog may have been directed at me. I think they used to have one of those come through here twenty no closer to twenty five years ago. I don't know of one within say 45 to 60 miles from me. In other posts when i joke about being so far out in the sticks that I get Monday Night Football on Thursday afternoon, it is not that far from the truth. Jim

nope, just trying to keep the thread from turning into something that would get it locked.
I the bolt you need somewhere in my garage and you can have it. it will be this weekend before I can dig it out
