zeke01 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Does anyone have the complete brake tool they would sell? I find myself in need of one. Thanks. Zeke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 If you can't find one, try searching the forums at p15-24.com It's a very active site for the Mopar flathead crowd. There have been several threads on home-made brake adjusting tools that you'd probably find helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JACK M Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Pretty sure I have a tool that measures the inside of drums. I will look if this might be what you are looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

padgett Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 dial calipers ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JACK M Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 . It an AMMCO 8500 in pretty good shape. Dial seems to work as it should. The tag shows several manufacturers drum diameters and max rebores. I would have to have a pretty healthy offer to sell, it but would be happy to loan it for shipping expenses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JACK M Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 I just looked this up on eBay and they are listed from 50 to 110 dollars. However every single one of them seems to have issues with the micrometer as none of them are resting at zero. Mine does indeed rest at zero and seems to work properly.

JACK M Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 After a search it was interesting to see what the 1750 is. They seem to be asking quite a bit of money for those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure enough I rambled around and found them. A bit cruder than yours, but they served the purpose. I am still on the hunt for a 1750 but for now I am satisfied. Thanks for the help.
