Brent B3B Posted April 9, 2016 Report Posted April 9, 2016 Are you looking for something other than this? http://dodgepilothouseclub.org/know/ph_parts/b_5.pdf Quote
Fernando Mendes Posted April 9, 2016 Author Report Posted April 9, 2016 Thanks for share.In plate 5-3(page 5-4),front wheel,my doubt is which excentric(cam) pin that we can adjust the heel?Is it the bolt(5-19-4)?When we dismounted the brake in 2012 we did not can see the pin cam. Quote
Fernando Mendes Posted June 15, 2016 Author Report Posted June 15, 2016 Are you looking for something other than this? http://dodgepilothouseclub.org/know/ph_parts/b_5.pdf Hi BrentB3B.Mine pilothouse is a B3B.I ask to you which excentric screw I can move back and forth under the shoe(heel).Thanks for your help.

desoto1939 Posted June 15, 2016 Report Posted June 15, 2016 The pins that have the arrows are the eccentrics that move the heel of the shoe. the upper half moon shaped item control the toe movement on the upper end of the brake shoe. It does not matter if you have a double wheel cylinder the eccentrics act the same way. Rich Hartung Desoto1939@aol.com. Quote
Fernando Mendes Posted June 15, 2016 Author Report Posted June 15, 2016 Ok desoto1939.Thanks.I will observe when the next dismount,because I have to redo the left front wheel cylinder. Quote
Fernando Mendes Posted June 16, 2016 Author Report Posted June 16, 2016 This is the original(broken) brake shoe anchor pin cam of my WWII Jeep 1942.I think in my Dodge it is without it,only has the heel(pin with arrow).The last time(2012) I dismounted,noticed that it was not with eccentric movement.

Sharps40 Posted June 16, 2016 Report Posted June 16, 2016 If I understand, you think the dodge pins have the excentric broken off like the pin in the photo above? I think all the dodge excentric pins are alike, a single piece of metal no excentric to break off. Like the photos of the 37 Dodge backing plates with pins below. Quote

Thanks for your help Sharps40.In post #5 desoto1939 said the pins with arrows are the eccentric that move the heel of the shoe.I still think the Dodge pins are not with eccentric.They do not can move the heel of the shoe,because there is no anything cam to do the movement of the shoe.In my WWII 1942 jeep I shown the cam that is responsable for the movement of the heel of its shoe(it is broken).Did you understand?

Sharps40 Posted June 17, 2016 Report Posted June 17, 2016 (edited) Yes. I understand. Both willies dodge/mopar use eccentrics on the lower part of the shoes..... The bolts shown are eccentric. These are Lockheed brakes as used on nearly all the mopars and for all, the lower anchor bolts are cam ground. They move the lower part of the shoes in/out/up/down when rotated. If you look very closely you can see the bolt shank is offset in the brake mounting cam. The difference from photo of the willies part, the cam is part of the bolt, not a separate piece. The upper cams on the backing plates take care of similar movements for the top portions of the shoes. Edited June 17, 2016 by Sharps40 Quote
