Jan. Cant help you with the numbers, but I do have a set of F1 front brakes and spindles. Also have a complete rear axle with brakes. You can get them cheap if you want them.

Hi Thomas

Sendt you a pm

 

back to the top, just in case any one missed it

Anyone??
..thanks

 

Ive got F-1 brakes, and they have a little slot milled into the drum from the front (outer)face so you can insert a feeler gauge to check drum to shoe clearance,and this feature was dropped on f-100s so that might help you ID them.

 

Hi lowsquire thanks for the info
Got a pic ??

 

Not true. I have a set off a '54 F100 and they have the feeler gauge slot in them.

 

Im shure somebody on this board got the info to share
part#, pics, anything

 

48-52 F-1 brake pics attached.

As I'm sure you're aware, F-1 & F-100 brakes are the same part-for-part except for the hubs and drums.

If you need a measurment or something, let me know.

Hi Mike

Thanks for the reply

I was not aware that it used the same part (exept drums & hubs)
but i hawe seen in catalog's that a lot of parts go from 48-63 on hydraulic brake parts
thanks again

 

The 8C part number means it was introduced in 1948 commercial, but I can't tell you how late it was used--no "late model" parts books.
The major adjustment of Bendix brakes is covered in old Lincoln Zephyr bulletins. You position the slot up near the top of the lining, put in an .010"
(47 hectares metric equivalent, I believe) feeler gauge between lining and drum, then loosen big nut on back of anchor stud slightly so it is barely movable and tap the anchor upward to get .010 clearance at top of shoes. Then you do the minor adjustment with the star wheel. Major adjustment is only needed after lining replacement or drum machining.

 

Hi Bruce

Thanks a lot
the 8c number was the thing bugging me
but it dont mean anything if the cylinders is the same
like odther things they must have kept the number

 

Don't know if this will help, but here's the wheel cylinder numbers out of a 1959 FOMOCO service parts book.
