Are the spindles the same on a '40 car and pickup? How about the rear end? I am searching for parts for the Model A I'm getting, and I think I know where some 40 truck parts are. Thanks! btw, I do intend to get "the book" (Tardel/Bishop), just haven't gotten around to it yet.
Just be aware that a truck will most likely have a lot lower gear ratio. Most cars are 3.78 or 4.11 Trucks (that I have seen) came with a 4.86
Most trucks are 4:11, however you could order lower rear ends. The rear ends do interchange with the cars on the light duty trucks.
While ch***is parts are virtually the same, how about front fenders, grills and hoods? Would a 40/41 pickup hood fit a 40 Tudor sedan?
Hoods are differant. The fenders are basicly that same, but they bolt to the cowl differant, so the mounting lip is differant but an be made to work.
