Carrier brake shoe springs
The brake shoe springs (CGB 371)on my MkI* restoration are broken/missing.
Can anyone help me find some new old stock ones, or point me in the direction of a suitable alternative. Failing this, what information would I need to have some made - strength of spring? as well as length? If I do end up having some made I will let the forum know in case anyone else needs any making at the same time. thanks Rick Last edited by kosbie; 08-03-17 at 11:15. Reason: wrong spelling |

If you do a search on the forum, it will lead to discussions on the springs from way way back. I had 100 springs made up about a decade back, and sold them on the forum....they all went quickly. Jordan Baker found some from Mac Auto that were inexpensive. Unfortunately, he only posted hotlinks to the springs rather than the actual part number, and none of the links work anymore. Perhaps Jordan can recall what application the springs were for. I just assembled some brakes at work the other day, and cmp truck springs were nothing like the carrier springs. The springs Jordan was talking about may be these ones but he will have to confirm: http://www.macsautoparts.com/ford_me...passenger.html .
Part #: 32-20072-1 Alt Part #: 91A-2035 OEM Part #: 91A-2035 I have used Iltis springs in the past and never had an issue with them, but they are not commonly found these days. http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...ad.php?t=10034 http://mapleleafup.net/forums/showthread.php?t=16183 |

These are the ones I sourced from Macs years ago. They fit and worked very well in my carrier.

They are 6-1/2" long from end to end.
