For push comes to shove, these are the items I'm in need of...

I'm in need of the parking brake strut and anti-rattle spring. Along with that, I'd like to get 2 or 4 of the adjusters complete (includes the two main components and the hardened thin washer. I also need the two thick lower springs that hold the lower shoes together (star wheel lock spring. Finally, 4 wheel cylinder push rods.



Troy..been there done that...parking brake strut can be obtained from mopar member "DoctorDiff". Anti rattle spring from local NAPA (that's where I got mine). Heavy duty star wheel adjusters and star wheel lock spring also from NAPA. Wheel clinder push rods are tricky. Only place I have seen them is Year One for $15/each...ouch! See picture below of my set up (not the best picture but you get the jist)...I think it's similar to what you are talking about. I have part # for items from NAPA if you want them...PM me if you need them. BTW car looks great

Good info. I have 11' rears with no adjusters but have been thinking of adding them as I have better things to do than adjust my brakes every couple of months.




That's a thought as well.. I already have all the components for modify all 4 corners to self-adjusters.... Anyone think of any negative things about modifying the non to adjustable?






Will you be removing your wheels and drums at car shows ??? If it's going to be a trailer queen and you believe they didn't have them then leave them out .

Thanks Wayne... I checked NAPA's website and all "show" to be good numbers...

I'm taking it that there are two anti-rattle springs per kit, one adjusting screw per box and one adjusting screw spring per box.

That's right except for the screw spring....the box I had contained 4 in it sealed in a bag. BTW I checked my email and doctordiff has the parking brake levers and can get the struts if necessary. His email is shown on the user list..good luck.

I just checked on NAPA's site and they show a self adjuster 'repair kit' that has everything including new cables for about $16 per wheel ( #80685 & #80686 rears) . Looks like I'll be taking the Vert for a drive today on a parts run!
