JamesF Posted March 28, 2019 Report Share Posted March 28, 2019 Any suggestions as to where to look for an emergency brake band for for my 49 Ply 2 dr sedan? Also, if the bolt holes match, is there any reason that I couldn’t use one of the new aluminum thermostat tubes on my L head six? thanks, jamesf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Young Ed Posted March 28, 2019 Report Share Posted March 28, 2019 do you need the entire band or just material to reline it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesF Posted March 28, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2019 Hi Ed, i need the entire band. It was missing when I got the car. Fortunately I live on the New Mexico high plains. Nothing that leaving it in second gear won’t take care of. :-) James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesF Posted March 29, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2019 Thanks for all the suggestions for sources. I found one from an eBay seller who showed that he had 10 NIB parking brake bands for $135.00 shipped. He also had the “make offer” button on. I thought what the heck and made a $75.00 offer. He took it! thanks again for the help. james Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
