I have the front and rear end off a 37 ford I got for $200. I would like to use this on my model a coupe. What backing plates can I use to convert to juice brakes and still run the wide five set up?

It looks like most people use '39-'48 car or truck brake parts or you can check this place out, http://www.earlyv8garage.qpg.com , I know nothing about them it just came up on a quick Google search.

I was told 39 was what I need. I know 39 was the first juice brakes for ford, but I was wondering if there was something else would work

From what I read, the 39-41 will work but the 42-48 have a larger piston in the brake cylinder. I'm not real sure, and I'm sure someone that actually knows what they're talking about will chime in lol.
read the section about f100 brakes
