Need Help: Brakes on Commander 6000

Leroy Henson · Jan 11, 2013

The brake control under the running board leaks oil around the cylinder rod that the pedal depresses and releases. Can anyone give me advice on how to repair? I have the seal and the o-rings to repair but I don"t have a clue on how to fix it. Also does anyone have a Shop Manuel for a 1965 Ford Commander 6000 that they would sell? Also does anyone have a good steering wheel for this model for sale? Thanks for your help.

This site sells the ford service manual. The IT manual also is very good for the brake valve. I rebuilt my brake valve last year in about 3 hours start to finish. You start by relieving all hyd pressure from the system. Then unhook the hyd lines and unbolt the valve. Put it on the bench and disassemble. Keep the spools together with the bushings as they are closely matched to each other. It will be obvious where each o ring goes. There is no need to bleed the system when it is reinstalled. These brakes are considered self bleeding.
