Ford Fairlane Ford Fairlane was produced from 1955 through 1969. The original body design was the full sized Ford body which started out as a family vehicle and slowly evolved into many different available models and body styles. The exterior paint and trim options, seemed endless with elaborate cloth woven seat covers and a rainbow of paint combinations.

Default 67 fairlane brake ?

Hey everyone gotta a dumb question. I need wheel cylinders, drums, and shoes all around but there's eighty million different options and everyone wants bore sizes. What do i measure to get replacement cylinders. the diameter of it, the throw on the pistons? I don't get it but if someone knows please help cause i wanna get her on the road. I know cars but used to disc brakes which are way easier. Thanks

If you have the stock (old)brake parts, measure the fillowing:
Inside diameter of the bores in the wheel cylinders
Inside diameter and width of the drums.
Width of the brake shoes.
Different models had different size brakes. The parts stores today sometimes have measurements but don't always relate them to the specific model, ie, GT, Sedan, Wagon, Engine Size, etc. with the measurements you can check the parts at the store before taking them home.
