1948 Ford F4 brake info

Parts for the F4 seem to be hard to come by. My F4 was on display at Northside Ford in San Antonio for the into of the new F350 this weekend, and I had them look at the brakes while it was there. It needs a master cylinder and wheel cyclinders. Can get the master at RockAuto but can't find wheel cylinders. Any ideas anybody? Is the F4 compatible with F3 wheel cylinder? Those are available. Thx

I saw this post after I answered your email so you know the places I suggested. For anyone else, any good, local parts house should be able to get the parts you need. If not go to Job Lot Auto, www.joblotauto.com. They had a package deal of four wheel cylinders, master cylinder and three hoses for around $300. These are new, not rebuilt.

Is the F4 compatible with F3 wheel cylinder?
1948/52 F4/F5/F6 front same as 1948/51 F3 rear
2) 91T-2261 .. Rear Wheel Cylinder 1 1/2" / Right/Left is the same / Obsolete

Applications: 1948/50 F4/F5/F6 & F5/F6 COE.

CARPENTER NOS OBSOLETE PARTS in Concord NC has 1 = 800-476-9653.

WESLEY OBSOLETE PARTS in Liberty KY has 1 = 606-787-5293.

ANTIQUE AUTO SUPPLY in Arlington TX has 2 = 817-275-2381.

2) 92Y-2261 .. Front Wheel Cylinder 1 3/8" / Right/Left is the same / Obsolete

JST AUTOMOTIVE in Lebanon TN has 2 = 615-443-3086.

NOTE: Job Lot (joblotauto.com) is not listed on the parts locator, so I have no idea if they have these cylinders or not.
