Question:

I have another question concerning the self adjusting brakes for my 2005 Carriage. You gave me some part numbers, however, they cant be correct. Im going to give you all the information I can. Brake shoes are 2 1/2, 4 bolt backing plate, 12.32, 8-395 hub. Other numbers I found are: 6K26 and WF-1. Thanks again in advance, hope to hear from you soon...Doug U.

Sorry Doug, you're right. I went off of the 7k axle rating and didn't thoroughly check, sorry about that. Those are 7,200 lb hubs that use 12-1/4" x 2-1/2" brakes. I'm not sure if there are self-adjusting, we only have the manual adjust brakes like # 23-428-429 that fit that drum size.
