Modern part numbers for CMPs

[Jordan Baker]

Does anyone have a source for the through bolts used on these brass blocks and for the rear brake one? All of mine were rusted junk. Are the front ones the same as the rear ones?

NAPA has them complete with or without washers. You just need to know your thread size (usually 7/16-20 on most of the old North American stuff). Use the term "Banjo" bolt when talking to the (oldest) parts guy. I find the younger parts guys go crosseyed when you use common terms like this.

If you lived closer, I have a bin of about 50 of them out in the shed.

Ok great. I just wasn’t sure as there seemed to be different ones. I’ve got an old school NAPA in town. I’ll go visit them tomorrow.

Not truly a modern part but these are measurements from NOS felt seals used in the steering knuckles.

These are for the 6” ones but are the same for the 5” axles except in overall length.

The length is 24-1/2”

Hi Jordan

Thanks, good information to add to CMP Knowledge Base.

I've been using leather replacements since 1979 back then it was really hard to get information on CMPs. My first discussions with anybody who could answer questions was via regular mail. The first responses I got were from guys in Australia and New Zealand.

Cheers Phil

Good Day,

Here's another seal number that fits the Ford transmission rear seal to add to CR 21211

KOK brand Part No. TC 12167, rubber covered. They conveniently even give the dimensions embossed on the seal, in inches no less! KOK is a Taiwanese company so probably available worldwide. Cost $10 at the local bearing shop in Australia.

Cheers,
