Messed up Rear Brakes

Post by fordboy69 »

I'm redoing the rear brakes on my 69 f100. One side didn't have anything except the wheel cylinder and on the other side most of the springs and adjuster are broken. Does anyone have the rear brake diagram that shows where everthing goes? Also there is a knob just above the wheel cylinder that some springs hook up to that is sheared off. Can you change this or what? Thanks.

As for that sheared-off pin...yes, you're going to have to replace that backing plate. That pin cannot be removed/replaced.

Ahh there we go thanks for the diagram. So would I have to change the anchor pin plate since the knob at the end is sheared off?

I have a f250 parts truck. Would brake components from a 3/4 ton work on my f100?

Fordboy, where do you live?
I have a trailer made from a F100, but my truck is an F250. I'd be willing to swap rear ends with you if you aren't too far.
