Description
When you’re working on those old Ford drum brakes, you know every little piece matters. These brake anchor pin retainers might look simple, but they’re the unsung heroes that keep your brake shoes properly positioned and prevent that anchor pin from walking around. If you’ve ever had a brake shoe come loose or heard rattling from the rear wheels, worn or missing retainers are often the culprit.
What You’re Getting
- Set of 2 retainers per bag – enough for one complete brake assembly
- Precision-formed steel construction that holds the anchor pin securely in place
- Direct replacement for original Ford parts – no modifications needed
- Proper spring tension to keep brake shoes aligned during operation
Built for Real Farm Work
These retainers fit Ford 501, 600, 700, 800, 900, 2000, and 4000 series tractors from 1955 to 1964 – those reliable workhorses that are still earning their keep on farms today. Whether you’re running a 600 for light duty work, an 800 for general farming, or a 4000 for heavier tasks, these tractors all use the same drum brake system that depends on these small but critical components.
Made to Last
Farm tractors don’t get babied, and neither do their brake components. These retainers are built from quality steel that can handle the heat cycles, dust, and vibration that come with decades of farm use. They maintain their spring tension season after season, keeping your brake system working like it should.
Good to Know
When you’re rebuilding those drum brakes, replace these retainers even if the old ones look okay – they’re inexpensive insurance against future problems. Always work on one side at a time so you can reference the other side for proper assembly. Keep some penetrating oil handy for those old pins that don’t want to budge, and take pictures before disassembly if it’s your first time inside those brake drums.
