97 f350 duel 2WD.
I want to upgrade rear brake cylinder to a larger size. currently it is 1 1/4" and being in Australia I need to find someone who knows can supply the correct bit from USA
If you are wanting more pressure to the rear axle brakes, you can route the brake line around the RABS cylinder on the frame. Also, are you using the correct brake pads on the rear axle? More pressure isnt going to stop any better, just increase the probably of throwing yourself into a skid by locking the back brakes up.
thanks for your suggestions, I know what i want and and now have the information on people in USA who supply f350 upgrades for heavy load applications.
Engineers certificates on mods are law over here. Insurance also becomes null and void unless up to RTA requirements.
I am changing my original f250 on singles to f350 dual wheel specs (for stability), to carry a set specified load and tow a set weight trailer. f350 rear brakes needed improvement.
eg:-3"wide rear shoes now, upgrading to 3 1/2". larger wheel cylinders. 1" up to 1 1/8th.
