ford gpa g504

Hello,

I believe there are springs that take up the slack of the exterior brake lines... could somebody give me details on the number, locations, and spring mounting both on the vehicle and the lines themselves? Any pics would be most helpful! I believe there is a tab that mounts under the axle bump stop in the front?

Thanks,
Tony

Bob,

Yes I do see it there.... I believe Peter said Jaap is reproducing some of those parts... plus I need a close up of the tab that is bolted to the bumper

You're GPA is looking wonderful again :)

Thanks again,
Tony

Yes Tony, Jaap has the sets and I hope he has them still.
Here a picture of the bolted clips that I found on the axle bumpers.
Jaap has the "special " springs and clips that go around the brake hose.
(did you allready found my tacs??)
