Yes, I have to go to the store. I'm not sure how they work the items in the drawer but the local NAPA has items in those drawers that don't appear on the website.

Do you have a NAPA near you? The local napa has a blue drawer with a pretty vast assortment of copper washers. That is where I got the ones for my hoses.

Hurst roll control on two of my cars. No issues whatsoever.

The info is in here. Using mustang rotors for 4.5" bc

Utilizing the Mustang rotors is as simple as it sounds. Just machine the rotors as outlined in the thread, add the proper bearings, seals and stick 'em on.

How do I replace my old Parking Brake Handle with the new one?

LH lugs weren't only on Mopars. Pre 65 Buick, Olds,and Pontiac had 'em too. Studebaker until 62, I think. Rolls and Bently too. Plus a few others that don't come to mind right now.

That was the OEM style for the A-body Mopar rear brakes on the 8-3/4 axles. Don't know why they made them look like Darth Vader though.....

Drilled holes and welded in thin wall pipe like SPL440 did.

Yup Original equipment...Mopar must have had the first visions of Darth Vader.

I put the Scarebird setup on a freinds early Barracuda and it would lock up wheels easily and about squeeze your guts out against the seatbelt. You've got something amiss because I would definitely do the Scarebird on my cars if I hadn't already done the 73 & up on one and the K/H on the other...

I had a similar issue. Went through three of the rebuilt units before I wised up. The lifetime warranty means nothing if they won't last, especially with brakes. I finally took an old core I had laying around and ran a brake cylinder hone in it. With a rebuild kit from NAPA it has held up...

The end of the spring is shaped like a hook and it goes through a loop made into the square tab. They can be a real test of patience to remove. The pin punch they are suggesting has to be the correct diameter so that it can push only about the last coil of the spring. I used to have a favorite...

There are a lot of folks who will tell you the modified angles that result from FMJ swap will cause bumpsteer and other problems. I have done two FMJ swaps, one on an early A and one on 70 and both worked out well with no negative issues.

Do the drums have a big ol' lip that looks like the bottom of Darth Vaders helmet?

I just bought some hardware kits from the local NAPA. Part number they sold me was H7129. See if your NAPA has those.

Oops, I sound like an idiot here... I meant shoes from retracting all the way...

Yes, I'd agree with above. It sounds like you got a master cylinder with the residual pressure valve for drum brakes. They are designed to hold pressure in the line and prevent the drums from collapsing the full distance. Disc bakes require no residual pressure.

Just got a set of Bendix ceramic pads. The new part number is RD84. They claim them to be "global ceramic". The blue box says ceramic all over it. 26 bucks.

Bendix makes the D84 CQ CERAMIC PAD

BD-11s CQ ceramic work great for me!

Duh, I see now that you stated it was Mopar parts and not Scarebird......

It wasn't the Scarebird setup was it? They will provide all of the parts for that conversion for around 500.

Hope this photo helps with your bracket issue. The hoses that fit my car are part # K-H HB82015
