Does anyone know of a source for small quantities of Brake lever pins and bushings?
Thank you in advance.

I bought a number of brake pins, bushings, hangers and adjusters from Hadady Corp. They were great to work with and sold in any quanity.

Years ago, the big supplier of brake pins and bushings was Ex-Cell-O now long put of business, but their catalog and part# will cross to both General bearings and Hadady Corp.
Ex-Cell-O catalog listed the dimensions for all their parts so a great reference work. General Bearing has a crossover catalog to Ex-Cell-O. I have digitalized copies of both Catalogs thanks to a friend. If you message me a can, email files to you or others. 16.6MB the other is 1.6MB. I have never had any luck downloading files to a post.
I used to purchase freight car brake pins from ACF now Wabtec makes a line of standard freight car brake rigging components including pins and weld on jaws.

Thanks for posting the Ex-Cell-O brochure, Steve.

Does anyone have copies of the truck drawings that are listed on the next-to-last page? Those would be a very valuable resource to have available.

Thanks,

Howard P.
