Larry, if you ever find any parts for those Rocky Mountain Brakes, I have a friend that needs some too.

They started making very close copies of Rocky Mountain Brakes back in the 1960's. The guy who was doing this had no mechanical knowledge, and allowed himself to get side tracked, and wound up using AC brakes from a 1926 for a pattern. He never did get the equalizer correct either, and that is why they are using rods today. I could go on and on with this topic, because I was there!

Not sure what the doohickey is or does… but the eye bolt would be a simple one to reproduce. Let me know if I can help…

The "doohickey" is the linkage connector from the rear of the trans. cover to the equalizer rod to the cable pulley.

If you are willing to make the pull rod bolt for the brake pedal, and can make it out of tool steel I can supply another photo, and the exact dimensions.
I know of several guys who need this part.
