Hey, I know all you cool long-time Forward Lookers know this stuff but, as a relative Noob, I am still learning. And you know what that means...

Yup, I have to share what I learned.

In this case, I bought a binder of random 1950 to about 1961 Factory Service Bulletins and there are lots of things to share (a bit at a time). In this case (below), No. 943-CH from Dec. 16, 1955
shows the difference between the Kelsey-Hayes and Bendix power brake boosters.

I believe the Kelsey-Hayes design was borrowed from one of Lawrence Welk's used accordians. Not sure what the Bendix "can" was based on.

Amongst the TSBs that you bought, do you have any specific to 55 Desoto ? I have about 1/3 of them, beginning with 677. I'm missing 548 thru 676. The Desoto TSBs have a dark red band at the top with the words, 'Important Service Information' in white.

Thanks,

Ron
