Brakes

Any one ever put '52 brakes on the front of a '50?

Have the complete brake set up from the parts truck , 1952 F-2, and was wondering how well they would work on the front of my 1950 F-3.

I would prefer the star wheel adjusters on the 52 over the cam setup on the 50.

Rear doesn't make a difference as I am now running a Sterling rear.

They should bolt right up and work fine. IIRC, the spindles are the same.

Thanks 52Merc. Figured it ought to work OK. Just trying to get this beast up and runnin with what parts I got before I start modifying. Plan to do disc conversion in the future but the budget says the fuel tank and a few other parts have to come first.
