The Ford brakes on Chev is important
Hi Darren
Grant's point of that Chevy CMPs having Ford brakes is a important one, as it has driven more than one Chevy CMP owner crazy trying to find brakes parts. On the C60L, C60S that I have they are indeed Ford brake parts both front and rear. On some other Chevy CMPs such as HUPs the fronts are Ford brakes while the rears are Chevy. Most of the brake hardware is standard hardware of the late 1930s and 1940s. There have been numerous threads on MLU about overhauling brakes so some searching will yield a wealth of information. As will the manuals, do you have the manual for the truck what you want is the MB-C2. Welcome aboard to the fun of CMPs Cheers Phil

One more difference
Earlier CMP front brakes used the narrow shoes and smaller 1 3/8" wheel cylinders (as you'd find on the 15cwt types).
The later ones with the 6" steering ends had the same width brake drums and 1 1/2" wheel cylinders as the rear ones. I can't quite see from the angle of your pic which front axle you have. Hope this makes sense.

Brakes on the front of the C8 are the same as 1.5 ton civy Chev
