I'm going to try the sleeve route so I'm curious about the proper material to make them from and how much undersize the bores in the sleeves...
I had considered that until I discovered how hard (and expensive) it was going to be to round up all the parts from backing plates to wheel...
I've seen those and they're not cheap and disc brakes don't fit with the early '50s feel I'm going for. I did find out that I've misread the outer...
The inner bearing rides in the drum which is is almost 13" in diameter. I suppose that the drum itself could be cut from the bearing support part...
I'm in the process of rodding a 1935 IHC C-1 pickup. Right now I'm woking to upgrade the original mechanical brakes to late '60s Ford drum brakes....
Thanks Paul. I was wondering if he had misread the "C" for "G", but the sequence number seemed too long (making this the 267,782nd engine...
I'd like to piggyback on this thread. I'm corresponding with a guy 1500 miles away (so I can't physically look at the engine) who has what he says...
I know this is an old thread, but I just ran across a pdf file from Fram that lists applications in section 1 and dimensions (ID, OD, and height)...
Ryan, I've received 6 emails (1 yesterday, 5 today) entitled "Your alliance tag... It's shipping soon... Promise - New reply to your conversation"...
Alright, I've been searching for a couple of days now and can't pull this article up. Anyone else find this information? -Glenn
Just went out to the S-10 corral (don't ask :)) and looked at stock steel and three different kinds of factory alloy wheels, both 4x4 and 4x2. The...
Okay, now I'm puzzled. I have a pair of spindles I *thought* were 1935. They have the 5 5/8" spindle length Dick specifies, but have 7/16" backing...
Thanks! So these two (which I was assuming were '35) would be later? The level of knowledge about my ignorance is constantly expanding :D
I got this single axle housing with a bunch of mid to late 30s Ford parts and I have no idea what it might be from. Help would be greatly...
I'll reiterate what several people have already asked - what are these slotted wheels from and what diameter? Bolt pattern we can figure out......
Thanks to all of you for the responses. Since I'm hoping to get this put together in a couple of months I'm going to oil it up and stick it back...
Hey guys. I searched through the threads looking for an answer but so far I've found nothing so I'm turning once again to your collective wisdom....
If that's the case it'll be a little trickier. You'll need to isolate the case from the fender or whatever metal piece it's attached to. Remember...
Quick note. When I said "coil" I was referring to the relay coil in the solenoid, not the ignition coil. Buy you all knew that...
Shouldn't be a problem. On the later Ford solenoids the positive is switched and the other side of the coil goes to ground. You should be able to...
Joe, Buy the coupe for all the reasons the guys here have given you, and keep in mind that this won't be your last car. Use this one to get...
I checked out another thread on Eastwood welders but it dealt specifically with their MIG welders. I just received an email offer for a 200 amp,...
I may be missing something, but I think you're getting hung up on the term "ground". In any electrical system chassis (as opposed to earth) ground...
And now I realize that the backing plate to backing plate measurement would also be helpful in finding a replacement open drive rear end. -Glenn
I can't get to my car at the moment to do the measurement so can anyone tell me what the width of a stock 1937 Chevrolet Master coach rear end is...
A little more information. I'm capable of welding this so technique isn't an issue, and the rails will be blasted and primed before assembly in...
I've read a number of threads on the weld vs. bolts schools for front ends and have picked up a lot of what I think is good information. But I...
I've looked through the forums and haven't seen this exact question so here goes. I'm looking to buy a bandsaw. I'd love to have a nice...
Lots of opinions on replacing/reusing, but not a lot of references on brands you trust. So far ARP (naturally) gets a lot of good reviews, and...
