Brake Cross Shaft Diameter?
 

I'm going to replace the service brake cross shaft bushings on my '31. I was wondering what the diameter of the shaft, where the bushing go, should be to safely use the standard 2 piece bronze bushing. I would want to order a repair kit the same time that I order the bushings if needed. Thank youappvalley tutuapp tweakbox

I just measured one, it was 13/16" (.8125")

I just did mine last week and both ends measured .079. Do a search on my post as it received several good replies. The 2 piece fit just fine with minor filing.

Be careful of decimals. 13/16 is .8125. The above .079 is likely .79 inches or 25/32.

I stand corrected, mine was .79. Long day

When I typed it in I thought it didn't look right.
