Pretty odd that you can't get it to lock up with a few turns on the adjuster. Are the shoes seated where they should be? Worn out drum, too thin on the lining, perhaps the adjust pins attached to the shoes could be beefed up to give a bit more push? Surely some one will chime in with the right idea....

Thank you Neil, you are the man to ask!

My two emergency brake levers (30-31 AA ) show no factory paint and no plating.
Were these finished in a butler plate or left plain?
Same question for the shift levers, one's shows black paint, the other just rust.
Sorry I don't have the JS bible yet.

Never mind I found my answer.

Just going over the front springs and I notice the clamps are riveted not bolted like on the Model A.
Must one grind theses off to disassemble the spring pack? and do they make new rivets?

One suggestion on your template piece. Where the oval slots are for the roof material tacking area, try to get as much wood as possible to hold the top on. In your pick it shows you could get half again as much wood to be available for tacking. This really helps with the roof material rough in, fina...

Can Anyone tell me about the drums on this double A On E-pay?
Item number 320774746223. Looks like model A drums on AA spindles/hubs?
Or were they smaller on the fronts in 28-29

I have a gas leak at the connection between the gas line and the filter inlet at the firewall. I have tried to tighen as much as I dar...

Farel of Vancover My swing arm for spare tire has the hinges mounted on top of cross member, mine is riveted on. If you would like pics e-mail me at terry_rose2002@yahoo.com Thanks Terry, that would be interesting. It's looking more and more like this second frame was an Express bed from factory. M...

Thanks for that Neil, I wonder how long this truck ran as an Express, and when someone decided to repurpose it as a deck.

Awsome truck and excellant graphics!

Ratz! I had read that, but did not think to check it out. Oh well I am going to start rebuilding the springs for both frames so I'll take some comparison shots when I get them all together

One of the odd ball things on my second frame is the Spare mounts. It had the rear under frame mount like used for the deck trucks but also has a reciever for a side mount on the passenger side about the middle of where the box would sit like an express? How many styles used the box side mounts? You...

OK Bob I threw a tape on the long ones and they are the same as yours 5 7/8".
No P/O# on mine either.
