Dana 60 drum brake parts?

Post by Phils67 »

Does anyone know if you can get the plates that go on the upper pivot pin between the springs and shoes on a Dana 60 anywhere? Its 12x2.5 drums, the axle is from a 1980 J20 if it helps. I want to finish this project and have it under my truck and rolling soon and i am down to the brakes. I also need to find the pins that the wheel cylinder pushes to move the shoes. Any info is appreciated!

Pretty sure these are Delco brakes. Even though the GM trucks aren't Dana 60s AFAIK, I would look there for parts. I presume you want the brake shoe anchor pin guide plate? That's what Jeep calls it, PN 8124504. And the brake shoe to cylinder operating link, 8124506. These may cross directly to GM parts.

FYI the anchor plate from 12" electric trailer brakes fit perfectly. Had a set i changed at work and popped the old plates off and just tried them on. Good to know since theyre unavailable now new
