Ordering Brake Parts
Just curious what folks are doing here with brakes. I'm going to rebuild the brakes on my 68 K10 and have been looking at LMC truck--anyone ordered from them before as far as brakes go?
Also, I see there are variables put forth in their literature on which is which and such--brake shoes, line diameter and such. What's the correct dims on my 68--it's completely stock as near as I can tell. Trying to get all of this ordered while on the road so when I get back from the latest adventure I will be ready to rock.... Thanks, Dave. |

Re: Ordering Brake Parts
Here's the latest adventure. PH 2800XPC shovel at an iron ore mine in the Sahara. Google "Zouerate, Mauritania" for the location. No glamor here, it's a beer-free dump!

Re: Ordering Brake Parts
your best bet is to go into the local autoparts store and buy from them

X2!!
Wait until you get back, do some measuring first. Order locally! I got a lift from a shovel like that once. Picked up the back of the 100 ton and slipped me over 50 feet. I'd backed in wrong! |

Re: Ordering Brake Parts
x3 on that. Really need to take the wheels off and have a look and measure. I was able to get NOS up here-Drums made in Canada which was a treat compared to the Chinese stuff you usually get. The shoes were harder to find.
