I got the shoes, hoses and wheel cylinders from Rock Auto. I used Raybestos for the wheel cylinders and shoes. A friend used Centric wheel cylinders and had a lot of problems with them. The seals and bearings shouldn't be a problem.Some of the hardware can be tricky but if your springs are good, reuse them. Make sure your brake supports are good and that the adjusters work. They can get stuck and then people round off the adjuster hex. They should be really stiff, but no so stiff that you can't turn them mounted on the car.If you haven't pulled your rear drums yet, make sure you get a proper puller.Nick

Subject: Brake overhaul kits
Hello,Here is another question as I work on the major systems for my 300 F. It looks like I will need to replace brake parts on my 300 F. I’ve been looking through the usual suspect list and haven’t been able to find anyone that carries all the parts for a 1960 300. I did find the attached kit from Kanters, but they really aren’t on the clubs trusted list. Does anyone know about these kits or have a reliable source where I can purchase a kit? I’ll need shoes, springs, hoses and wheel cylinders.Thanks!
