F1 and F2 brake shoe pivots
Does anyone know if the F1 and F2 share the same pivot bolt for brake shoes? I am looking for one for F2 for f250 48-54.f If F1 is the same, the search will be easier. Pictured is the F2. Thanks.

Re: F1 and F2 brake shoe pivots
THose are F-1 parts only. The F-2 has 12 inch shoes and they pivot off of 2 studs in the backing plate at the bottom. F-1 uses 11 inch brake shoes. I wonder if someone put F-1 axles under an F-2? Easy way to tell is measure your wheelbase. F-1 is 112 inches, the F-2 is 122 inches. THe F-2 has the big hub on the rear that sticks thru the wheel. Post the vin number, so it can be decifered. Part number is 96H 2027, Dennis Carpenter Ford shows 26 in stock. THey could be NOS or repo stuff. His number is 704-786-8139.
Anyway, post the vin and someone will decifer it. Look for it off the frame, not the firewall or glove box door, they can be changed. Could be the truck has a F-2 nose on a F-1.

Re: F1 and F2 brake shoe pivots
The 12 inch F2 went to Bendix brakes at some point, I think about 1952. The first couple of years used the Locheed style like early Ford. Fronts are much like early Lincoln, and the 96H is a '39 Lincoln PN!

Re: F1 and F2 brake shoe pivots
48-51 F2 used the 12" Lockheed brakes identical to the 45-47 commercial brakes with fixed lower pivots. 52-54 used Bendix (which is apparently what you have). Unfortunately, the F2/250 top shoe anchor is not the same as the F1/100, but is the same as some of the 51-54 F350s.

Re: F1 and F2 brake shoe pivots
I guess I did not dig deep enough for my answer, but the 96H may fit a Lincoln, but are in the parts book for F-1"s. The prefix does not mean it's just for one particular vehicle, it means that's where it originated from. It probably was used on most everything with that style 11 inch brakes.
