Re: Brake Linings

The 5580 and 5680/88 chassis had larger diameter brake drums than the smaller wheelbase models giving more brake surface area. The junior and senior brake parts are not directly interchangeable.
You can find out model differences for most mechanical features by checking the special mechanical spec issue of the Service Counselors. Complete specs for models as initially introduced are in an issue published right near time of introduction for the coming model year. Any changes from those initial specs are generally given an article in a following counselor or have a tech bulletin giving a reason why there was a change.
Here are the pertinent brake specs for the two wheelbases for 55-56 model years.
