51 Merc brake hold down spring cups
Anyone have a new part number for the drum brake Hold Down Spring Bottom Cup? Original Ford part number is 2066.
thanks |

Re: 51 Merc brake hold down spring cups
The original Ford part number was 26H-2006. That number indicates it started out on the post war Lincoln cars. My 1951 catalog indicates the number changed to a kit that included all the shoe hold down parts. It was part number 8M-22009 but they kept the basic part number reference for those cups through 1953 I believe.
Lincoln used Bendix type brakes before Ford & Mercury did so some of the parts continued with other Ford/Bendix designs including Ford pickups & trucks. They are listed as 25/32 inch OD. C&G has a brake shoe hold down kit P/N B2A-2068-K that would likely work. The length of the pins would be the only question but the 2 1/64" pins were the same part number between pickups and Mercury cars. Hell, the F1 had the same rear axle as the Mercury cars with exception to the spring mounts. |

Last time I needed them, NAPA had the kits plus just about all the components needed to rebuild the Bendix standard brakes.

Re: 51 Merc brake hold down spring cups
The 8M-2042 was used for a long time on Mercury cars, Ford cars, and pickups up into the y-block era and likely beyond so their should be a lot of those out there. I think they even used them on the Mustangs in the 60s. They likely changed the part number in later years. I think it was B7A-2042-A.
