Does anyone know for sure if the brake cylinders are the same on my M139(bridge tender) as the other 5 tons of the same era(mine is a '62)? The bridge tender 5 tons came with 14.00x20 duals on the rear axles which I think is the only one with that set-up. As far as I know, the axles are Rockwell, so that is why I think the wheel brake cylinders are the same, but that is why I am asking.

They are the same axles. The bridge trucks used longer dog bones and a spacer setup with longer studs for the wheels
