Does anyone have a descent picture of the rear brakes with the drum off?

Thanks

Thanks Steponit,

Any ideas on where I can buy a worn out parking brake lever and parking break link spring.

I'm going to be removing my drums this weekend to do the rear disc conversion. I can see how they look for you maybe we can work something out.

Fordby4,

I took off the RH side drum this weekend and the arm and spring look good. Do you need both RH and LH sides?

I would say just pay the shipping.

I think they are in good shape too.

Yes I take Paypal

I still have to take the Driverside off. Sre you in the middle of the brake job right now?

Thanks man, you don't have to do that,

I am having some serious issues with a brake job, I brought my truck in to a local shop because my brakes where locking up, after installing a break booster & master cylinder, I drove ot about 20 miles to my in laws and the brakes got so hot it discolored my disc's on the front, brakes are squeling real bad now. Anyway, safe to say I lost all confidence in those guys.
Trying a different place tomorrow.

Dan

I assume you don't want the Drums. They are a bit heavey.
