Parts for Rocky Mountain Brakes
Part of my rocky mtn brakes came off and vanished into the ether the other day. I don’t need a whole new set, but some of the parts that went missing on my country drive. Where can I get just some replacement parts?

I think I found his phone numbers. Does he have an email? I'd like to send pictures.

Re: Parts for Rocky Mountain Brakes
The parts from Rocky Mountain Brake Co. in Temecula will work fine for the brakes he manufactures. Some of the older R.M. brakes are different, so if you need parts for them, you might need to check the swap meets.

Re: Parts for Rocky Mountain Brakes
What parts went missing? Maybe someone can offer suggestions on work arounds.
I know the voices aren't real but damn they have some good ideas!

Re: Parts for Rocky Mountain Brakes
Check with Chaffin's Garage - I believe they carry some replacement parts.

Re: Parts for Rocky Mountain Brakes
Your adjusting nut is upside down. The ridges keep the nut from backing off.

Re: Parts for Rocky Mountain Brakes
Thanks! I’ll fix that one. That’s probably how I lost the other side.

I also lost the bushing or whatever it is that bolt passes through.speedytinc wrote: ↑Sun May 11, 2025 8:24 pmYep. If cotter pinned correctly, the rod should have stayed attached.
You should have lost the nut, 2 washers & a spring only.

Re: Parts for Rocky Mountain Brakes
Don't recall seeing that bushing on other setups? Otherwise, take the other side apart and make a trip to ACE or other hardware store and match the spring up and other missing nuts and washers as needed. The adjusting nut might be a little harder but longer type nut with bevels ground would work like the sample from the other side work, even a steel one. The sleeve would just be a piece of steel tube with hole drilled through it.

Re: Parts for Rocky Mountain Brakes
I own three T's with original Rocky Mountain brakes, and I've never had a part fall off!

Re: Parts for Rocky Mountain Brakes
Hi Jason,
Have you been able to get the parts you need for your RM brakes? If not Mc Master-Carr has L bolts in 3/8 x 16 in many lengths of both
dimensions in Tensile strengths of 58,000-120,000 lb.& thread length. Look under Hook anchors for concrete. The adjuster nut can be made
from a 3/8" coarse rod coupler, the swivel tube can be made of any tubing of the correct Diameter & every thing else is hardware nuts, washers
spring & cotter pins.

Buds daughter, Suzanne, has taken over the business and it’s now based in stevensville Montana! She is responsive to emails and very helpful.
They have email, but I don’t know if they want that posted.

Hi Jason,
