    Can anyone point me, if possible, to where there are 10" wheel cylinder links to be had?
    Mine are almost rusted away to nothing.
    My google skills must be slipping, i can't find em!!!!
    1971 flavor.

    Thanks,
    Justin

    I think I was able to get them from NAPA (before I went up to 11inch brakes).
    Not necessarily a big fan of KW - but it will at least get you some info for 10 inch brakes - 2nd row in the link:
    Jeep Brake Wheel Cylinder and Parts

    guessing someone like Walcks would also have them...

    Sorry - I think mis-interpreted what you meant by 'wheel cylinder links'

    I suspect those are not available aftermarket anywhere anymore. You would have a hard time finding them for common brakes like Bendix or Delco, let alone the 10" Wagners.

    Parts like that don't wear out, and there is subsequently no demand for them. You could convert the fronts to disks and use the pins from the front for the rears.

    Post up in the classifieds here. Likely you'll need to take some used ones from someone's junked 10" brakes.

    Thanks guys. I'll continue to look for some, clean up what i have and maybe they will last another 40 years.
    I think mine will be usable, just really rusted and pitted bad.
    I do have the 10" drums off the front, i forgot about those.

    Howard, those are for the newer 10" drums on the CJ7's.

    Thanks.
    Justin
