Hi all, we are restoring a 1952 F3. In taking apart the ebrake/hand brake we noticed that some of the "bolts" ( they look like wheel studs) and there were 4 of them are bent pretty significantly. We have looked online and at litttle dearborn and have had no luck. Also have tried local auto parts stores for wheel studs the same size. Does anyone know what this "bolt" is called or where to find any?
thank you!

They are 7/16 -20 with a .462 knurl on the end. They hold the ebrake/hand brake drum to the hub that goes into the transmission and also hold the u-joint bracket for drive shaft on.

You could probably find a used trans mounted brake assembly easier than buying new bolts. I've had a couple and couldn't give them away.
