The GM / Delco Moraine 5456301 – 904‑R kit is a front wheel‑cylinder rebuild kit used on several late‑1950s and early‑1960s GM full‑size platforms, and it sits in the same family as the 901‑ and 905‑series kits you’ve been cataloging. The 904‑series is a mid‑generation update—newer than 901‑series, earlier than 905‑series—and was used heavily on Chevrolet and Pontiac full‑size cars.

Notes
-
904‑R is the correct Delco service kit for the 1" front cylinders used on these platforms.
-
It superseded some 901‑series kits and was later superseded by 905‑series equivalents.
-
These kits are high‑demand among Chevrolet and Pontiac restorers because front‑cylinder kits are harder to source than rear.
