Brake Parts

I am looking for the e-brake bracket that goes on the front of the frame (next to the fuel lines). The finish on mine is no good. I also need the brake hose brackets that connect the caliper lines to the frame, mine are rusty.

E-brake brkt????? No such thing. You have the e-brake cable w/sleeve come thru the firewall then thru the frame, held to the frame by a u-clip.
A cable goes to both sides with a "V" connector to hook up to the e-brake cable and two nuts. The ends of the cable go to the rear cables. Connection on both ends is a large "U" connector.

Disc brake hose brkts, can you have yours sandblasted?

If not, I can check my inventory. Email me directly.

Would be helpful if you had a pic of the ebrake item you need. Thanks!

 

George;

I can blast my brackets for the hoses; are they yellow cad. or what? The bracket next to the e-brake line (that goes through the frame) is what I need. It is just beyond the prop. valve. I attached a photo. The color is clear zinc(at least that is what is left behind where the bolts went through).

That is the column lockout brkt.

The brake hose brkts are black, chassis black.
I believe Duane stated before the lockout brkt is zinc.
I am sure he can verify.

All the ones I find here in FL are so covered with rust/grime
that I can never tell what they were originally.

 

Len,
Are you talking about the clip that slides over the front cable to keep it from pulling through the frame toward the front??? Its a U shaped one approx 3/4 by 3/4 maybe a little bigger.Looks like thats a 4 speed car too.

George;

It is zinc. I found a place locally that does zinc coating. They did my brake backing plates and my caliper brackets (yellow cad.) for only $ 35.00. I may take the bracket to them to replate.

I am glad the brackets are black. I can blast them at home and paint them. I got all my hoses/lines last weekend at the Carlisle show. They match pretty good. The front ones (around the front cross frame) are not as tight as the originals.

Do you have a spare prop. valve lying around?

Thanks for your help.

Pat;

No, I already cleaned, painted and reinstalled that bracket. I just lost my digital camera, I took some photos of the updated progress. I sure hope I can find it. It was a nice one, too.
