surge braks bushings?

[wanabecruisen]

Need some help from the experts! I'm trying to revive my m416 surge brakes and found the replacement master cylinder I needed but in trying to free up the mechinism I discovered several worn bushings in the pivot assembly. No luck finding these odd size bushings locally. Anybody have a source for them? Am I going to have to make some?

Update for future searches: jks587 (thank you) was kind enough to pm me with all the information I needed. These nylon bushings can be found at www.crofttrailer.com as part #1745.

I rebuilt one of mine using sintered bronze plainbearings. I could not find anywhere the nylon ones.

Could you share with me where you found the replacement master cylinder for your M416-A1? I'm in the process of restoring an A1, as well. It looks like I need some new wheel cylinders, too!

Thanks in advance!

White Owl parts should have everything you need.

Its the same one that was used on my '52 M38A1 should cross with an early CJ

Would you be so kind as to visit this link and tell me if this is the one you are referring to?

It's at Willys Jeep Parts Specialists | Kaiser Willys Jeep Parts & Willys Restoration and the part number is: 805223

Thanks. Oh, how about the shock dampener? Any suggestions for that?

Wow.. no response, so I took the chance and ordered the parts. Luckily everything fit.

The nylon bushing can be found at eTrailer and Croft Trailer. They are listed one of two ways. Toledo Actuator Nylon Bushings OR Balcrank Nylon Bushings. Either way, their part number: 1745. CroftTrailer.com has the best price.

The replacement master cylinder did turn out to be one that fit 49'-53' CJ-3A. Kaiser Willy had them for $50. Part number: 805223. It was a perfect fit.

The shock dampener that goes into the surge housing is also made by Toledo/Balcrank. Part number: 1844-2. Sells for $55-$60. Again, CroftTrailer.com had the best price.

All of these were an exact fit for my M416A1. I found these when I noticed that on top of my surge mechanism, had the Toledo Hydro-Act logo stamped on it.
