A HET member called me looking for a source and part number for the brake hardware and springs for a Jet. He took his apart and lost all the parts, so he has nothing to match it up to.



Any help is appreciated.



Thanks,

Matt

    Please note, the above info does not apply to the brakes of the Hudson Jet. The Jet brakes are 9" - fronts 9" x 2" and rears 9" x 1 3/4", thickness .175". The brake equipment is of the Bendix self-centering floating shoe type. Only minor adjustment is required as the shoes center themselves when the brakes are applied assuring uniform brake lining wear. Eccentrics contact the brake shoe ribs to provide adjustment to compensate for lining wear. This is a completely different system from that used on the Hornet & Wasp vehicles.

    That makes sense. Any idea where I could locate part numbers for replacement springs and pins (Napa etc)?



    Thanks to all who responded.

    Matt - I have not been able to locate new brake hardware for the Jet applications. Best source I've found are from Jet parts cars. The early Rambler & Willys Aero used the same brake system. I know this does not paqrticularly give us better odds at finding these parts, but it does widen availability somewhat.

    The infomation came from the Raybestos catalog which looks like they use the same infomation for all Hudsons. Too bad.

    Thanks again to all. I'll put him in touch with Barry S.



    This should be enough to get a fellow Hudsonite going again.
