    Hello,

    I need for my customers 1972 Maverick, front and rear wheel cyls. and a manual brake master cyl..

    Autocrafters is out of stock on the front cyls. and master and nothing at the local parts store.

    Where should I go to get the parts ASAP?? Autocrafters said 2-3 weeks and I need to get the car done by Oct. 16th.

    Thanks, Jim

    Should be able to get everything from a local auto parts store. They may have to order them. Or you could order them from www.rockauto.com

    I seem to have better luck find older parts in stock at NAPA, but as maverick1970 stated any parts house will be able to get those parts next day...

    My local parts store said they can get the master but not wheel cyls.
    Will give Rock a try

    i ordered all my stuff through Advanced Auto's Website. They wound up shipping it from several wharehouses around the coutry but it all got to me in a timely manner.

    The only parts that I was not able to get was one of the hardware kits. I cannot remember for sure but I think it was the hardware kit for the front. I think they had the one for the back.

    My car is a 72 Maverick with the 4 lug 9-1/2 brakes, If I had of had the 5 lug brakes I could have gotten all the parts. Make sure to get the self adjuster kits when you order all your parts as mine and everyone I have ever seen there is something wrong with the self adjusters
