I'm after some brakes for my oval... and to be honest(an dperhaps rude)... I dont want to pay for them either. Anyone in sydney/wollongong/shoalhaven giving any away? need to clean out shed?
I think oval brakes are different to later drums. Is that right?
How many differnet types are there and how do I know if they are the right ones for a '56?

I bin thru this , there are are a few different wheel cylinder sizes & a few different shoe widths & everything can be mixed & matched, especially over so many years
I am not sure of the exact changover dates of the parts either, so depending on what you already have the critical thing would be width of shoes & the size of the wheel cylinders & have everything in pairs, my rear wheel cylinders are the early smallest ones & they have a 17 on them for 17mm
Please, I need drivers side window regulator (winder mechanism) for my '54
I have some front drums that came off a front end I scored. It could have came from anything though, I wouldnt have a clue. I would like to have the correct parts for 56 if possible. The only rear brakes I have are from a later semi-auto.

The brake drums shoe adjusting slot is elongated for the front

does anyone have pics of the differences between oval and 60's brakes? I have some front brake assembleys, but dont know what they are off.

"'' Is a link pin beam a link pin beam or ""'
the early ones dont have the mount for the steering dampener.''
The early trailing arms are different and dont have the recess for the grease o ring on the pin.
just hi-jacking for a moment can you make a bracket and weld it on for the steering damper as i`m changing beams and dont want to change everything just unbolt the steering box and drums off the ends or do i just do away with the steering damper
meetings 1st sunday of the month
