E brake.

I have a 29 frame that is missing the holes in the frame for the ebrake rod crossmember that connects the rods to the rear brakes. Can any one tell me what I have?

The hole with the blue pen is where the big rod sticks out both sides of the frame.
 
Greezybob, at least I helped you load pics ! The real techs should be responding soon. I'm just the greeter tonight :) Check out plucks site, that's where I'm heading now. Pat
 
This is a 29 frame....three holes. Two bolts hold a cup on the inside of the frame that the brake cross shaft rotates in...center hole for a grease fitting...you can see the brake actuating arms go around the frame bottom

That's some good information. Thanks 1955cj5. I need to find the mechanism for the 29 e brake or can I use the 31 mechanism parts if I drill out the middle hole in the frame?
 
Might be like the early frames yet, see cross shaft leaning on pole behind frame ? bolts on inside of frame with three holes, 2 for bolts and center for zerk.

I don't know about that....I would look for the original style parts...you might have fit issues down the road with the 31 cross shaft....but that is just a guess...
 
I see the diferance in the two styles. I will be on a quest to find the right parts Thanks for all the help Good night.
 
Call Bert's in Denver for the right parts. 800-321-1931

I like the 28-9 style much better, because it's easier to service.
