58 seat and wheel cylinders
I am trying to get my 58 C60 farm truck fixed. The pack rats ate the entire interior. I need to rebuild the seat and would like to know what kind of foam people are using. Also I need a reliable wheel cylinder rebuild kit for front and rear and need a source for those also.
Thanks. |

Re: 58 seat and wheel cylinders
I got the necessary materials from Perfect Fit for the seats. I would like to sand blast the springs and repaint them. They are rusty from the mice.
I did get rebuild kits from RockAuto for the wheel brake cylinders. I honed them out as best I could. I wish I had a little more coarse set of stones but I don't think they make them for that hone. Thanks for the tips. |

By all means blast the seat springs. If you don't the rust will chew up the new material very quickly. I blast them and use rustoleum paint on it

Re: 58 seat and wheel cylinders
fyi: they didn't make a c60 until 62
58 thru 61 is apache up to 1 ton, viking is 1.5 and 2 ton, spartan is anything above 2 ton
