I don’t see it as a mis-fit, more of a mis- measurement. A 2 inch difference is quite a bit Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
I decided to go with a reverse eye A spring and will probably step frame as well. Was a little concerned about T spring hitting the 9 inch diff,...
Finally got my new spring yesterday, am I seeing things or does this not seem right? The slight arch along the spring is 2 inches different from...
Oh yeah, I always forget Ford Barn, thanks man Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
So I got this 46 continental and recently it started leaking oil from a hole in the pan that has a cotter pin hanging from it. Like a substantial...
Thanks man. I just can’t swing the $480, which is why I’m leaning toward the main leaf and adding few leftover from other springs Sent from my...
The speedway one or millworks one? Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
What I’m thinking is this main with a couple secondary leaves from A spring Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
Going to go with this one I think. Thoughts? [IMG] Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
I just got a weird vibe from the guy that replied from Posie's also. Maybe liability issues for them to suggest doing anything other than the way...
Boom! That's the route I'm taking then. Was really not looking forward to relocating the perches, I'll put this other spring on a shelf until I...
Posies reply- "Our reverse eye Model A main leaf will not fit a the stock spring pack. Not only does our main leaf have the reverse eyes, it...

I’m thinking I’ll try calling posies and ask about a main leaf, they’re fairly close to me too. Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
Where did you get your main leaf?
Crusty fenderless Fordor. Planning for wheels to be fairly tight to body, maybe won’t look too bad. Yeah from what I gather, I should be at 44”...
Ah yeah I should have specified, I bought the medium arch with reversed eyes. The one pic is comparing new with the one that came off it. Sent...
Before I say anything, ill apologize if this topic has been beat to hell. But I just need to clarify if I screwed up or not. So this is the first...
Bought the wrong drums from Rockauto and waited too long to return. If I remember correctly they were like 28 each shipped. Anyone local to...
[IMG] Made this and realized it was a perfect fit for the front of my 53. Have since taken off out of fear of it being stolen. Sent from my...
Haha all good, thanks man! Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app

Scored this old girl recently. Anyone know anything about these? Fiberglass, stands about 6 feet tall. [IMG] Sent from my iPhone using The...
That looks awesome!
Yeah that’s not the only bad spot, it’s just the only one where mud popped out. I’ll get some better pics over the weekend. I definitely don’t...
[IMG] Only pic I have at the moment. It doesn’t look too bad here but on the inside there’s a lot of waviness and creases Sent from my iPhone...
It’s pretty rough. That side must have taken a good hit at some point and someone attempted to unmangle the fender and fill it with a gallon of...
Yeah I’ve been looking for a few years and the only decent 53s have been in the $600 range. Guess that explains why previous owner filled it with...
What do you mean about a slight peek? Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
Ideally what I would like to do is use entire fender but cut and weld the front grill area. Provided I find a suitable donor that doesn’t cost a...
