They aren't universal, except for those years listed. Your parts store could order them, it's unlikely they have them in stock but ya never know. Try RockAuto, they have a decent enough parts system online. What you want is a spring kit.

NAPA had my 48 stuff in stock and had in 1 day. I also found out that the 66-67 bronco has the same rear and brake parts as my 48. I ordered the spring kit from them for the bronco and it all was good except the self adjuster which or trucks didnt have.

1948/52 F1 & 1953/67 F100 have 11 x 2 front brakes; 11 x 1 3/4" rear brakes.

1966/75 Bronco's have 11 x 2 front brakes; 10 x 2 1/2 or 11 x 1 3/4 rear brakes as it depends on the weight capacity of the rear axle.

1966 Bronco uses the same front & rear brake hold down springs as 1961/65 T-Bird. 1967/75 Bronco front/rear hold down springs are the same as 1968/79 F100 rear.

Self adjusters introduced in 1964 F100 2WD's.
