1927 Hudson brake return springs
Help.
I am trying to locate brake return springs for my '27 Hudson Sedan.
I am told 27 and 28 are the same. My Hudson is an early '27 and I
require two springs on each of the four wheels. (Some that I spoke
with were under the impressions that the early '27 only had brakes on
the rear wheels.)
Does anyone have any extras they would be willing to sell or can any
of you please send me in a direction I might find some springs. The
demensions are as follows:
spring #1. Primary spring: part # 29217
overall length,4 5/8"
spring coil length, 2"
outside diameter, approximately 5/8"
(Regular curved hooks at both ends. Each hook is offset from each
other on the horizaontal plane by about 45 degrees.
spring #2. Secondary spring: part #29218
overall length, 6 3/16"
spring coil length, 3"
outside dieameter, approixmately 5/8"
(Regular curved hooks at both ends. Hooks are not offset on the
horizontal plane. They are the same at both ends.)
Note: The two springs listed are the same for each wheel.
I apologize for not uploading the files, but after about 10-12 times
of trying to do so, I gave up.
Anyway, I appreciate if anyone could help. Let me tell you where and
who I have checked with thus far.
Pep Boys
Napa
Hardware stores
Kragen
Auto Zone
Misc. spring companies
Bill Allbright
Pete Booz
Paul O'Neal
Jack Smith (Jack said he would crawl through his bone yard, if I
couldn't find someone with springs.)
Carl Weber per Pete Booz (Carl is checking)
Walt of Walt's garage. (Still checking)
Trying to get hold of Ashton Sherwood
Trying to get hold of Dave Kostansek
Thanks, Rick
PS I would have never guessed it would have taken this type of
search just to try and find some brake springs!
