Self Adjusting brakes

Hi all I have a 60 F100 and was wondering if self adjusting brake hardware from a later model would work with the stock drum brakes? I guess I'm spoiled to not having to adjust brakes evry few hundred miles. Thanks for any info you can give.

Bob

Yes, you can use the hardware from a late 60's, early 70's car or truck with 11 inch brakes. You can get hardware kits at any good parts store ( NAPA, CarQuest ) It will give you the self adjusters, cables and guides needed.
