Brake parts

[CCOR]

Trying to source wheel cylinders for a 67 M715, preferably from the local parts store. Anyone have part numbers? I searched and found a potential MC replacement from a Jeep Gladiator bendix part BXH 11331. I would love to hear any feedback from this application.

Thanks,

Robert

For the wheel cylinders, use '91 Ford E-350 cylinders - you will need to slightly enlarge the mounting holes. I used a dremel tool with a carbide bit. Basically, make the mouse ears for the mounting holes larger in a down and out direction. You'll see when you hold the new wheel cylinders up to it.

That is a good master cylinder number - I used the Cardone version 10-1331 on my truck. You will need a dual master cylinder adapter from Napa and a couple of other brass fittings, depending on what size line you use.

I left the front brakes on the original proportioning valve, and used a plug on the back of the proportioning valve to block that. Then I ran a new line from the rear feed line to the master cylinder.

Clear as mud?

The wheel cylinder part numbers for the ones compexp posted above with stainless steel pistons are:

93-94 Ford 1 tons.
Tru torque part numbers W37262 and W37263, left and right.
The following are part numbers for one side, not sure which off hand
Bendix 33595
Raybestos WC37263
EIS EW73615
Wagner F73615

I just ordered new M715 wheel cylinders from Memphis. Cost was $34.11 each.

Can buy the more modern ones for $12-14 each at Napa.

So the Ford parts essentially bolt right on, and have stainless liners so they don't rust and let the seals give out?
(like my 3 year old stock replacements did?)

and, they're cheaper?

what's the downside?
