LMTV - Brake Can Question

[Specialist Hawk]

I'm wanting to replace my rear brake cans/chambers and the fronts. Does anyone have any part numbers or cross references for them. I'd like to buy them from napa or some parts house locally.

Why? Why not just replace the diaphragms? It's super easy to swap them. Takes a few minutes per. I made a post about it. Apparently the older trucks use smaller diaphragms on I think the rear..... Read the thread and all the replies:

FMTV brake canister diaphragm replacement.

I've seen a few questions posted about replacement canisters - which are a bit difficult to find and expensive on the surplus side. I recently replaced the diaphragm's in all of mine and other than dealing with the paint on the clamp bolt threads it's an extremely easy process. On my 2008 A1R...
