Front brake shoe size? - 65 C code
« on: September 05, 2023, 07:40:47 PM »
Feel free to move this if I picked the wrong category...

1965 Coupe 289 2bbl AT w/PS & PB.  Which front brake shoe does it use; 10 x 1 3/4 or 10 x 2 1/4 OR how do I determine the correct size?
Thanks !

Did you look in this forums library? There is a link to "Ford Car Parts (aka MPC) that should give you the answer.
Do you have a copy of the 65 Mustang Service Manual? I know it's in there.
One of the purposes of this forum is to educate members. Knowing where to seek information is part of that.

No, I didn't.....  thank you for the suggestions !  I'll try my OE service manual first and then the forum library if necessary.  I appreciate your guidance.
