Re: 1949 1 ton brakes

According to this that one is 1-1/4 bore. http://www.rbinc.com/p-15166-m89160.aspx

It would at least need a residual valve on the front side.

I'm wondering if it can move enough fluid to work the drum brakes though.

We are all assuming that you have the brakes properly adjusted all the way around as out of adjustment brake shoes will need a lot more fluid and pedal travel to push them out to the drums.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
