Are there different sizes for flathead transmission bolts? I have a 59a motor with 7/16 threads in the block and sump, but the bolts won't fit...
How much caster are you guys getting with this setup? I've got mine mocked up at 5 degrees and it's sitting way lower than the ones pictured. I'm...
I'm in the process of pulling apart my '37 Lasalle box. I've got the cluster out and the input shaft bearing out, but now I can't get the synchro...
I don't know of a rebuild kit, but you can buy the bearings new, and gasket kits are available too. Have a look in the tech archive. I think...
Never mind. 48.5" if anyone else is doing it. Should be enough room for the brake fittings, and I think the shackle preload came out pretty good.
Getting set to put the perches on my diff, but I am reading conflicting information about how far the perches should be set apart. Has anyone...
Thanks. What will the ratio be like? Too slow?
Right sector is mine, left is Ford car. Spline measures 0.125".
Hex nut. The hex from my box fits the Ford car box.
Maybe COE? Larger truck maybe? I'm clutching at straws here. The box looks great and will work for my build. But it's useless without a pitman arm.
Not F100, it's splined just like 37-48 car ones, but slightly larger. I have an early f100, and 40 Ford passenger car box to compare. F100 is a...
I have what I think is a mid 40's ford truck steering box. It's push-pull steering, but not an F1. The internals are identical to the F1 design,...
I don't know about the rights, but I contacted Tom Cirello about a few parts for a H&C mag and he got back to me. He doesn't carry everything I...
I was at the dawn service this morning along with 35,000 others. Good to see the turnout on such a cold rainy day.
You're looking for a crab distributor. As for the front pulley, I was looking at a mates 28 roadster and he had it in the same spot as you, but...
The BT book says to put the mount in so that the front edge is 3 inches from the radiator hole in the front cross member, making it 4 1/2" center...
I think I have the same shop assistant as you. Is yours as lazy as mine?
I tried to contact him by Private message. I don't think he comes on here very often. It's probably best to call him.
Buy a french flathead fuel pump. It has a primer on it. Just pump it by hand if it's been sitting too long.,
Do you have any info on this conversion? I have an early F-100 and a 40 pick-up box, I'm trying to decide which to run. The starter on the...
I had a great day Friday. I got an early F-100 column and box, An SJ Brown 2 piece flathead intake, '36 spare wheel cover, plus a few small bits...
I was told this was out of a 38 ford pickup when I bought it. But it doesn't look like it to me. Can anyone id this for me? I'm thinking of using...
I am going to shorten the LaSalle. I was hoping not to have to weld the wishbone. We need engineers reports here in Australia, and they look...
I'm trying to nut out my options for a center cross member in my AV8 chassis. I've read Bishop/Tardell book a few times, but a few things on my...
This Minerva was really cool. I forgot what the canvas was from, but it was only built about 10 years ago. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
If you can't find what you need, this guy is making them new. http://stores.ebay.com.au/WADDINGTONS-STREET-RODS
I have a couple of 40 wheels if you're interested Pete. I think they'll fit.
This might have what you need. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=518562&showall=1
And people wear hats on their feet and hamburgers eat people.
Great build. I'm subscribing to this one.
