... I snagged this from a thread on the main board. What a great front end ... it would be CL on a Hambster.
that's pretty close to what my HA/GR has--- V8-60 tube axle cut down 37-41 Ford spindles, Model A wishbone Harley VL wheels http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=346803 over a year since any real progress, due to financial constraints
Hey Mopar , can you tell me what kind of front wheels you used and how you modded the stub axle to suit . I want to put some Harley front wheels on mine and as yet haven't come up with any good ideas. Thanks Nigel.
Hey Nigel ... sorry to hijack you question, but have you checked this thread yet ??? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=488608
mine are circa '34 to '36 harley VL. They require no spindle modification to use the Ford spindle, only the proper races. They were what Lyndwood Welding used and sold for their diggers.
Pacific Harley Trading or Rob Veitch , PO Box 439, Mount Hawthorn 6915, Western Australia, RobVeitch@westnet.co.au or Norm Hart normhart@westnet.com.au These guys are VL guys......... I wouldn't tell them you want the wheels for a dragster....!! Rob runs the VL register.
If you can tow it to Sydney ?? I believe there is a container full of HAMB crossing the T***y next April........ providing sponsorship is found between then and now.. Contact Dean.....probably best through Marcus.
when you say proper races, do you have a brand name of race and / or part number plz. for the inner and outer races
