Ford Model A Pickup Restoration - Improve Brake Plate Handbrake (November 2002)

The time when I made this modification, the emergency brake carrier assembly plate was not available as spare part, in the meantime you can by it as a reproduction part …
My plate has no noses and the emergency brake band is not guided properly. So I decided to weld such noses onto my plate.

Each plate is provided with 4 noses. The high is 1/2". I located their exact position on a photo in the service manual.

The backing plates with the new noses. Now they can be adapted.
