48 f6 brakes
Where is the best place to get brake parks for these big trucks? also is there any source for drums if one is bad/cracked?

Thanks

I got the master and wheel cyl kits from napa for my 49-F5. Also napa sent my brake shoes someplace to be relined, didn't need drums, so can't help you there.

New drums are NLA. Finding acceptable used ones is your only viable option. Stu
