    Hey guys,
    Just joined the message board a few days ago. This is my first post. Im 22 years old and i have a bone stock '31 model a tudor that is my daily driver. I have a good 59a flattie and i want to run a 39 trans with a tardel k- member. My question is about running quarter elliptic springs with a tourque tube. Has anyone done it? Can it be done? And who is selling Zephyr cluster gears?

    I'm running 1/4 elliptic springs front and rear with a shortened torque tube. You can get Zephyr gears from Bert's Model A in Denver 800/321-1931

    Just use a shackle at the axle end of the spring to allow for different radius of movement of axle/spring end.

    Thanks a million. I didnt see a reason it couldnt be done but, i had never seen it done before. Denis, where did you have the tourque tube shortened? I think i can do the tube but i dont know about the shaft.
