That might explain why the adjustment set up is exactly the same as a Ford Blitz Phil. Very very interesting, I await your further info with eager anticipation. I'm also told Dodges of the era had a similar set up. I suppose Wagner Lockheed (the brand on the Slave cylinders of this truck) would have supplied brakes for any manufacturer who wanted them. You'll notice in those previous photo's, the manual clarifies the brakes are 'Lockheed type'.

Cman lads, get out the books & manuals and lets find out more!!!
