This is from the HAMB and may help. Don't know if it is for long hoses for sure. I can check tonight to see if I saved the box ends from mine.

Here is a of brake part numbers for 1939-1948 Ford cars that can be found at your local auto parts store. No more blank stares when you ask for these parts. Just give the guy/gal/pimpled face kid, behind the counter the part number!

1939-1948 Left rear wheel cylinder CarQuest/EIS # EW156002
1939-1948 Right rear wheel cylinder CarQuest/EIS # EW156003
1942-1948 Left front wheel cylinder CarQuest/EIS # EW156000
1942-1948 Right front wheel cylinder CarQuest/EIS # EW156001
1939-1941 Front wheel cylinder repair kit CarQuest/EIS # C552
1942-1948 Front wheel cylinder repair kit CarQuest/EIS # C568
1939-1948 Rear wheel cylinder repair kit CarQuest/EIS # C554
1939-1948 Front brake hose CarQuest/EIS # SP296
1939-1948 New brake master cylinder CarQuest/EIS # E1050
1939-1948 Brake master cylinder repair kit CarQuest/EIS # M16
1939-1942 Front and rear brake shoes Raybestos # 38PG(premium quality) or 38RP(Standard quality)
1946-1948 Front and rear brake shoes Raybestos # 37PG(premium quality) or 37RP(standard quality)

That's all I found for now. I'm still trying to match up springs and other items for part numbers. Let me know if you need any help.

fyi  Early Ford V-8 sales Inc. out of new york is by far the cheapest i've found on brake parts. Your #156002 brake cylinder is $70 at Carquest, $60 at Napa, and $33 at Early ford. Most of their banjo bearings, etc are cheaper too, but at least you know the part numbers up there.       www.earlyford.com

Tracy, the long ones Eyeball and I are using on the front of our T's are Raybestos # BH25629 they are about 20" long. I think the number above is for the short stock ones, which might work for you. If I remember right you have the spring over the ax so the short ones should fit the build.

Yeah, the ones I got coming friday are only 15,3/4 long, but I found an old stock one and looks like it should work o.k. Thanx for the other number though, I'll try to store that for future projects

Wow they are allot better priced than most. Dick Spadaro is pretty close but still wants 40 ea for the wheel cylinders. I am going to order from them tomorrow. I would have done it online tonight but I can't figure out the wheel bearings and I need bearing retaining nuts that I can't seem to find either.
