Re: Looking for some advice on AA trucks
One question I have is on the inside of the back cover, there's an Express bed with high sides on it. Any of those survive? I actually like the shorter Express bed, but was curious after seeing that. Alan That is the 242-A Heavy Duty Express - few survivors - more at http://aafords.com/open-bodies/...

Re: Front spring clip question
I always thought the spring clamps are what neil posted above because they do clamp (and make sure thier clamped hard) and the things that pine wants are clips. I didnt know brattons made several sizes. if you find yours is close you can always make something to slip the bolt through to "tighte...

Re: Front spring clip question

Used a press and 2 U shaped things to press the U shape. slipped them over the spring and carefully measured where holes should go. drilled and using a grade 8 bolt they l...

Re: Power Take Off
same is true for the 28/29 with dual high - it has a neutral position that drives the PTO. then the 3 speed trans is your speeds and reverse.

Re: "29 hood
I have the perfect one but unfortunately Im in IL :( I wouldn't think it would be bank busting to box up a hood and ship it. If you pull the panels apart it should go into a relatively small box. Oh its already apart and hinges straightened just keeping the wasps company in the shed 8) Faded rock m...

Re: Hello

Re: Had my wheels sandblasted and....
agreed - not a super critical spot and since its from hole to hole it wont crack any farther. Take it somewhere where they know what their doing and get it welded.

I'm not pushed to buy, and while I could pull the trigger on one at the right price, I want to find one that will work out best for me. I have long lusted for a...
