Hi, looking for a parking brake chamber for a 1996 International Bluebird school bus. Part # International brake chamber 2005283C93

Anyone have any ideas on how to find one?

Best,
Nate
 
Are you talking air brake chambers?? If so the simplest thing to do is remove one and walk into a large truck parts store so they can match it up to a new one.
Most buses have VERY FEW bus specific chassis parts. No need to pay what the schools pay( a lot more) for the same parts.

Air brake chambers come in size 16's and 32's chamber sizes on buses. Modern buses all use 32's. My mid-90's bus comes with 16's so i just replaced them with 16's, but in researching I could of added 32's and they'd still have worked, and likely provided slightly more stopping power which I still may do once it's fully weighted down.
