Re: Henney Brake Cylinder Rebuild Kits and Hoses

I'm making some headway with the numbers.

For brake hoses, all 1948 through 1954 Henney-Packards use the same one front and rear which is the same as all 22nd and 23rd series passenger cars. It is Napa number UP 4497.

For the cylinder kits, the only one I've confirmed so far is for the master which is Napa UP 137 so please ignore the Dorman number that I posted earlier. The original Wagner number for the master assembly itself was 2539 (thank you Mike Dulinski for looking at yours and providing the number!) but I have no new replacement so far.

In list format
Hoses front and rear: UP 4497
Master kit: UP 137 (1-1/8" bore)
Brake light switch: SL 138

Dave (Ownen_Dyneto), the Henneys had 1-1/8" front and 1-1/4" rear brake cylinders which is per the 1950 Packard Service Counselor.
