Re: Larger tires

I saw that.....but it's a little late. I just bought 6 good ones. It also says limited availability. That could mean they have one and can maybe get some more.

Re: Larger tires

I got the tires installed over the weekend. And it is correct that the tire sidewalls will touch in the rear if using 7:50-20 tires and dual wheels. I tried test fitting and it looks like I would need at least a 1-1/2" spacer. It sure is easier to steer with inflated tires. I guess I'll worry a...

Re: AA PTO's

Will a PTO just bolt on to any AA transmission or was there a different transmission for the PTO?

Re: plans for a stake bed

I don't care about authenticity ....I just need functional. I guess my best option is to cut the 10x16 flat bed I have in two and narrow it. How wide is a flat bed for one of these trucks suppose to be? I have the short wheelbase I think, so how long also. I was thinking 8 wide by 9 long or so.

Re: plans for a stake bed

Do you have the metal frame for the stake bed and just want to make the rails that go around the truck? I used 6/4 oak for my pickets and 3/4 oak for the slates. The pickets fit the hole in the metal frame, no over hang. The slates are 7 inches wide( buttom slate), 5 inches wide (middle slate) and ...

Re: Rat AA's?

Here is mine before the new tires. Now that it has 4 good tires I'll drive it out into the open this weekend and get some current pics. It's pretty ratty at the moment. http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh1/ClassicAutoTexas/1930%20Model%20A%20truck/55A09537-6882-43B0-8FD8-2FCFB3667AEF-156-00000007E...

Re: Larger tires

[/quote]Any chance those tires are still good?[/quote]
They looked good for what I was going to use them for. That truck has 6 of them on it and judging by the tread left on them they don't have many miles on them but they are pretty hard from being exposed all this time.

Re: plans for a stake bed

Yes......that first pic is what I had in mind. I have a bunch of treated 4x4s I can use up to build something for it.

plans for a stake bed

Anyone have plans or good pics of a stake bed? I think I want to build one for my truck so I can at least haul stuff with it. Its pretty useless like it is now. If not I can draw something up.

Re: Larger tires

I had to give up on the 8.25-20 tires. Couldn't find anyone who would dismount them because they were afraid they would mess them up due to age. But last week I found (6) 7.50-20 goodyear tires for $250. I have two of them at the tire shop right now being mounted on the AA wheels. Since I have a su...
