Default Re: Converting 1940 Ford backing plates to self-energizing brakes

The 42-48 plates are better suited. I did a set way back when. If I did it again, I would use later model wheel cylinders that have the tab that the anchor bolt goes thru. That will set the vertical ind axial relationship to the shoes. It would be wise to use shoes from the same application as the cylinders. That way the shoes and wheel cylinders match.
