Went to put my brake system back together, and it looks like some parts got lost over the winter and during painting.. who knows.

I need to find replacement parking brake levers for the rear drums. What other year of truck will work for a 65 F100. Also the equalizer assembly for connection of the cables to the rear drums is not to be found. Same question as above.

Does anyone sell these parts?

Thanks

 

parts store should b able to get i would think.

 

AFAIK, the following three parts were Ford Dealer items only.

C3SZ2A637A .. Right Parking Brake Lever / Obsolete

No Ford Dealer or obsolete parts vendor has any.
-----------------------------------------------
C3SZ2A638A .. Left Parking Brake Lever / Obsolete

BOB ALLEN FORD in Overland Park KS has ONE = 800-676-0675. This dealer is HIGH BUCK!

No other Ford Dealer or obsolete parts vendor has any.
-----------------------------------------------------
Both these levers fit:

1964/67 F100 / 1966/75 Bronco with 11" rear brakes / 1963/66 Thunderbird.

1963/64 Galaxie / 1970/71 LTD with 11" x 2 1/2" rear brakes.
=============================================
The parking brake equalizer is the part the two rear cables attach to.

C3TZ2768A .. Parking Brake Equalizer-Includes the Adjustment Rod / Obsolete

No Ford Dealer or obsolete parts vendor has any.

Fits: 1963/64 F100 w/a 114" Wheelbase only / 1965 F100 2WD only / 1963/64 Econoline.

Contact FTE member camperspecial65. He may have some/all of these parts.

FTE members Garbz2 and Bill W may also be able to help you.

 

Speaking of Don.... i havn't seen him post much lately?

As far as the parts needed, i may have all or some of the parts on my parts truck.

I'll go look if you still need them.

 

You can get a bag of hardware (springs and nails) at Napa or any other parts supplier. Specific items like those P-Brake arms require a trip to the junk yard. Some of the hot rod suppliers sell an 11 inch drum system for Ford nine inch rears that has everything all new including the backing plate. Sometimes that is the least expensive way in both time and money. 11 inch drum rear brakes coupled with disks in front are a really good system.

 

He's helping a friend fix up a ratty old Cattle-Hack. Has been stumped on where to find...some of the brake parts.

 

That would be great if you can see if you have the parts. It is just about impossible to find parts for these trucks at wreckers around here.

Thanks

 

This site never fails to amaze me with the info and help. Thanks...

 

Out on a limb here but...all ford nine inch differentals used the same P-brake arms. Millions of em.

 

Where oh where did you come up with this info...it is NOT correct.

What does the 9" rear axle have to do with what brake parts were installed?

It has nothing to do with it...at all.

1961/72 right & left F100 Park Brake levers:

1961/63: C1SS2A637A & C1SS2A638A.

1964/67 F100: C3SZ2A637A & C3SZ2A638A

1968/72 F100: C5AZ2A637A & C5AZ2A638A (also fits: 1973/77 F100 & 1975/77 F150).

If the above part numbers were all the same, the parts would all be the same.

Are the part numbers the same? No they are not the same...as y'all can plainly see.

 

Just to give an update: all i have found is 1 equalizer bar that goes between the shoes, I'll look some more places tonight and see if i can find the rest of the parts.

 

ND, sometimes ya gotta come out here on the shop floor or even outside in the junkyard, you will find lots of people like me that simply make stuff work. Been at this for over 50 years now (like you)! OKAY ya got me by a couple months. 11/23/1944

 

Much appreciated.

 

I just completely rebuilt my brakes I found all the parts for my 66 except the backing plates at Napa. The springs and auto adjusters cost me about $20 per wheel for everything except the brake shoes. I even bought new drums for $115.00.
