Please help me locate IH parts!
 
I am having no luck what so ever locating some new front wheel cylinders for my model 1854 IH 1980 truck...I have tried O'Riley's and the IH local dealership and they both told me my truck was obsolete...I can not believe that my truck is obsolete!:scare2:...there must be a million of these trucks out there and for the dealership too say my truck is too old to get parts?:argh:...so if anyone here, I mean...you guys are like my last hope to getting my truck back on the road...I've depleted my resources here and I am at my wits end:dang:...my truck is hydraulic and has 2 wheel cylinders in the front axle, one at 3 & 9 O'clock...if you have any resource to locating these parts...I'd be very much a happy camper.:jump::jump:

Send me a PM or reply any suggestions here, thanks!!!

So...it's always the Mom and Pops place that saves the day:yeah:...I found a place here that specializes in hard to find HD truck parts...I will have my parts in about a week...that's the good news...the bad news is that I will be spending about $500 bucks to rebuild my front brakes...but besides the fact I'm doing the work myself I am saving a ton of money...I know of some people who spent over $600 bucks doing their brakes at the brake shop...so I guess it is a good deal...I am talking with the owner to see if I can get a package deal since I have to replace everything:s:

That's the one thing I hate about my old cars and trucks: it's getting harder and harder to find parts and when you do they are not cheap. Even used junk off eBay is getting ridiculous for the Mopars these days.

i worked at a buss garage that had that setup on them. we never replaced the wheel cyls. just honed and rebuilt them. couldnt get new cyls. but could get rebuild kits.
