60sstuff
Wore out three sets of tires already!
The RB-2 coaster brake (single red band) and the 2 speed Overdrive (three blue bands) used on the early Stingrays.
Brake arm information stampings and brake arm clips.
My two ‘63 Stingrays have the same Bendix stamp on the brake arm.
My 64-66 Stingrays have a different stamped information on their arms.
The first design brake arm “clip” (BB-11) was used on the 63, 64 and first half of 1965, including the Overdrive shown on my Black CA.
This clip had a rounded front tab and a long rear tab with extra holes.
The second design clip had a straight front tab with a short rear tab and was typically stamped B 2 on the front.
I have seen other stamps such as B 10 etc.
The earliest second design clip I have is on my Lime HA with Overdrive.
All my Blue Band Overdrive brake arms have no stampings on the backside.
The last clip I show is another design that is used with the very late ‘71 through ‘73 disc brake on the Krate.
This clip is similar to the very first design as shown on my ‘73 Sunset Orange Krate.
