68' W-300 Info request

Have a '68 W-300 that's going to need a front brake job soon. I know these trucks have a front brake setup similar to a Power Wagon and M-37. I know the drums are different but are the shoes and backing plates the same?

Anybody know the part numbers of the wheel bearings and races for a 1968 W-300 with Dana 70. Also a source for the front spring eye bushings, bolts and shackles.

Starter grinding noise

About every 10th time or so; when I go to start my '68 W-300 with 318 engine, I get a grinding noise and the engine does not turn over. It will do this once, twice maybe 3 times then start as normal. All the other times I get a normal start - no noise. I figured the flywheel had a broken or damaged ...

Re: W-300 Electrical Help

Got the aftermarket relay and breaker, made up an adapter and now lights are working fine again.

Re: W-300 Electrical Help

From another forum the relay is CC # 2906336 and the 15 amp breaker is CC # 1540427. OEM breakers are around 8-10 dollars however the relays are pricey around 75 dollars. I'll just go with a replacement relay and make up an adapter with some Sta-Con's.
Thanks for the info and help.

Re: W-300 Electrical Help

I have an original '68 Dodge truck manual ( not the full truck manual but the '68 supplement ) and both the relay and circuit breaker are shown along with a note that they were standard only on W-300 and D-300 models. I guess because of the extra clearance lights used. Can't get a picture because I ...

Re: W-300 Head Light Switch

Yes, there was a button. Pushing it in allowed the shaft with knob to come out of the switch. Thanks for the tip.

W-300 Head Light Switch

Need to remove the head light switch on my '68 W-300 but can't get the knob off. Any body know how it's held on? I don't want to break the knob taking it off.
