Hello all. I am getting ready to do the brakes on my 110. I will be doing the whole system. Does anyone know/have part numbers for wheel cylinders,brake hoses that local parts houses may have ie: NAPA etc.???????

Thanks in advance Pat

Hey Pat,

I have done the brakes on my '39 Six and I tried to 'cross over' NAPA type parts with very limited success. Kanters has the wheel cylinders,(and master cylinder) shoes and hoses remanufactured and they are very reasonably priced. Just a tacit suggestion, but I would strongly consider getting 'exact-replacement' parts through somebody like them and then everything fits perfectly and your car stays 'original'. Makes the job a lot easier too! Like I say, just a suggestion....

New drums are not available. Usually, they have a long service life, and when they do go bad, then used good ones are swapped.
