    Will 49 brakes work on a model a? If not what's the difference. Thanks

    Only if you swap out the Model A spindles. Need the 37-41, 42-48, or F-1 spindles to make it work. I forget which either 37-41 or 42-48 style needs a small grinding for clearance, but either can work. Sounds like you have a donor F-1, so just get the from spindles out and swap them onto your axle.

  4. I don't remember the details but if you plan to run wire wheels you need a VERY thick spacer.
