Brake Drums

[firefox]

Hi All,
Does anyone know if the brake drums and backing plates are the same
on the XM211 as they are on the M35? Are they also the same as on the M54,
or are the brakes on the M54 larger?
Thanks!

Not the M54 Bruce. Those are much bigger. Don't know about the M35 and M211 though. I would think not but no proof

The XM211/M135 used GM axles vs. the M35 used the "Rockwells" the brakes are very diffren so the drums would be to.

Thanks Kenny and Jason,
Jason, you wouldn't happen to have any part numbers for the brake
parts would you?

Kenny, That's some picture you have there....

 

[Recovry4x4]

Yeah, did you see 2 toilets or 3?

firefox,
get a copy of ORD 9 SNL G-749 this manual has all the part numbers for all of the M-135 & M-211 parts and assemblies

Not yet I don't even have a parts book.
I'm going to need one when I start to put my M135 back together.
It's the one in the middel

Wow, You must have realy worked hard to be able to afford a place like that.
Have you got the little one turning wrenches yet?

 

[jasonjc]

The littel one belong to a buddy of mine. I do make him turn wrenches when I can. As for affording it , no wife,grilfriend or kids and lots of det.
now if I could just stop buying more truck all the time and get some of the one I have done

The brake system on the M211 is twice (yes twice, 2x) as powerful as the M35 has. The M211/m135 have double acting, double wheel cylinders. They use BOTH shoes for all brake applications. Physical dimensions of the friction material is the same, just twice as much in use on the M211. M54's have an entirely different catagory of brakes. larger diameter, much larger width, larger wheel cylinders, larger booster.

i got to agree on the twice as powerfull .. i can lock up all 4 rear tires on my m135 but not on the m35 .. i thought it was due to more tires on the ground ... but it will stop like right now!!!
