Looks like ford half ton

some of the forums said it uses ford truck parts and there is no manuals or parts info available.

Hayes is still making brakes, so you might give them a call and see what they have to say.
poke here for their web site

how big is the bolt pattern that holds the wheel on. Its been 10 years since I left the tire shop, I think ford was 5 1/2 inch.

i'm pretty sure i got it figured out. i got new brake shoes coming for a 1963 ford f-100 truck . won't be sure till i get them and install them. will let everybody know so maybe google will return this thread in a search for someone else.now i need to remove a wheel cylinder and get two new ones. i also have a spring hardware kit coming. will list all the parts once i get the brake system working properly.

i finally got all the parts for my BIG DIPPER brake system.here is what it uses for anybody who owns one and wants to redo the brake system.
2 master cylinders for 1966 jeep CJ5 1" bore
left and right rear wheel cylinders for 1963 ford f-100 7/8" bore
rear brake shoes for a 1963 Ford F-100 11 x 1.75" or 1 3/4"
1964 Ford F-100 rear brake hardware kit

i am using the old brake drums but i guess the rear brakes for a
1963 Ford F-100 would be the right ones.

We have quite a few of those still around here. Still somewhat popular in the potato warehouses. My company has a couple like yours, one with the bucket and one with the forklift attachment, and a newer style one too. Never could get used the the older ones, shuttle shift and hydraulic controls just seemed to be on the wrong sides. The newer ones were hydrostatic controlled by a pedal, with joystick bucket controls on the right.

Can you get a copy of the manuals from your work?

Yeah I seen a lot of the post were old but was hoping they might get an email and check it out. The couple that were on sale on eBay have sold. I thought I seen on one of these forums someone had a service manual and was making copies but I can’t find where I seen it.
