Title: 69 Rear Wheel Cylinder Plungers
Post by: 69z28302 on November 07, 2010, 02:09:25 PM: 1969 Rear Wheel Cylinder Plungers?. The little metal T shaped rods that push the shoes out.
Does anyone know where to get these?
Thanks CRG

HERE'S (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Brake-Shoe-Link-GM-Chevy-Olds-9-1-2-Inch-Brake-Shoe-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem35960beb83QQitemZ230150630275QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories) a good price on ebay. Looks like a set of two plus shipping?
