The Rear Brake Camshaft Lever... OK...I have to be crosseyed because I can not tell the difference between the Right and Left Camshaft Lever, A-2235 and A-2236.
I have a few and they all look the same to me...maybe they are I do not know. The only markings on them is a "L" on some and "nothing" on the others. I take it that the "L" stands for the LEFT lever and the ones that have no markings are for the RIGHT side. Anybody? Thanks. Pluck |
Re: The Rear Brake Camshaft Lever... Steve, look very carefully at the end the brake rod goes on and you can see a very slight angle to correspond with the angle of the rod. I just went through this recently and I had to look at one on another chassis to see the angle. I hope this helps.

Re: The Rear Brake Camshaft Lever... Yeah, if you put them on backwards and try to hook up the rods, it becomes evident real quick.

Re: The Rear Brake Camshaft Lever... The key way is different.

Re: The Rear Brake Camshaft Lever... stick a drill bit through the hole, the angle will be easier to see

Steve, these are from a 30-31 but I think the markings and angles would be the same if you lay them out on a table. See if these photos are any help.

Re: The Rear Brake Camshaft Lever... Yes there are left and right levers but are typically not marked. I previously misstated.
Emergency levers are typically marked. I’ve done a gazillion of these but sometimes you have a brain fart! Larry Shepard |

Re: The Rear Brake Camshaft Lever... D.j. You are correct. I know brakes in my sleep but had a brain fart for sure. Ever done that ?
Anyway, Thanks for your catch. Larry |

Re: The Rear Brake Camshaft Lever... I was thinking parking brake levers.

Re: The Rear Brake Camshaft Lever... Just maybe all of yours are left?

Re: The Rear Brake Camshaft Lever... Vince Falter has done a study on this with his access to the Benson archives at the Henry Ford in Dearborn. Check out his Ford Garage at http://www.fordgarage.com/pages/rear...haftlevers.htm
Too bad he's not allowed on the fordbarn especially with his extensive knowledge of Model A's. |
