Anyone have one of these they would be willing to send? I would like to get one to duplicate it for my use.

    Is this the tool to adjust the brake shoes?

    If it works for '50 models, why not '51-'53? I thought they were the same.

    The 1952 edition for the Kent Moore tools guide for Hudson shows the same illustration, but the part number's listed as "J 2795 A" and still listed as "Brake & Clutch Pedal Rod Remover."

    Ken Cates sent me one he has. I am going to build the frame using steel bar stock, then build the "pusher using steel thickwall tubing and grade 5 nuts inside. ( the pusher threads on the brake rod shaft and as you turn it off, its shoulder is up against the frame and pushes the rod out and protects the threads) I'll post pictures when finished.
