Re: AR BRAKES ane EARLY 1928 Brakes
The non adjustable brake rods are mid 28. The earlier brake rods were adjustable, just a slightly smaller dia. The cross shafts had 3 distinct variations. I do not have my JS in front of me so I hope someone who does or know the changes by heart post that info to help you. Rod

Thanks Rowdy, I would have thought the non adjustable would have been earlier. Must have been a lot of retooling to get things right early on. Bob

When the separate parking brake band was added about in May 1928, then the brake rods also changed to non-adjustable, and were used until November 1928, when the adjustable rods and one piece cross shaft were introduced.
