Looks to me like 14-3/16" center-to-center.

If anyone has any Schrader model 725 valve stems, I'm interested. They are very similar to the 1822 stem for the AA truck, only longer, about 3-7/8" in length. The main body diameter is 15/32-26 thread, same as the 1822. Please see the attached photo. Thank you for looking! Brian Schrader 725.j...

Success! I modified the McMaster-Carr grommet mentioned above and have attached pictures of the results. I didn't try it with a speedo cable, but when installed, the internal diameter of the grommet reduces to about 3/4". Since the early cable is about 7/16" diameter I'm optimistic that it...

I also need a speedo grommet for my early '28 truck frame and am considering part number 9600K219 from McMaster-Carr. Take a look, it is for 3/16 thick material (good) but for a 1-3/8" diameter hole. My frame crossmember hole is 1-1/8" diameter. So I'm thinking that since you have to split...

Stakebed, here's a link to Neil's excellent summary of cab & door alignment that I mentioned.

The new updated paint color booklet (4th Edition) is now available through MAFCA and it includes Commercial Grey!

I just received mine. The color swatches are also much larger for paint shops to reproduce.

As it turns out, MAFCA is in the finishing stages of publishing an updated paint color booklet. They are working on including the commercial grey color in the new edition. Not sure how soon it might be available but it sounds promising.

I have an early A-17727 mirror assembly Design 1 as shown in the pictures below. It has the mirror retainer frame that is pressed inside of the mirror retainer case. I want to restore it, but I'm not sure how best to disassemble the retainer frame without damaging the frame or the case. Is it best t...

In case anyone is looking for a LH brake '28 AA, there is one listed on eBay. It's not mine

Thank you for the reply, calc. I actually have plenty of the rim nuts and dust caps. It's the stems that have proven to be the most challenging.

Thanks again,
Brian

Thanks Neil, that makes sense. I was worried that I had missed something

My early '28 closed cab doors have 3 locations for fasteners which are located where the top of the window would contact when closed. It would seem that maybe they would be for an upper window channel, but I don't have any original parts for this area and all I have found from the parts suppliers is...

I am in need of 5 Schrader #1822 valve stems for my AA truck restoration. They are 2-1/2 inches overall length. The Schrader stems are shown in the center of the attached photo. (I could also use Dill VS-1 stems, which look very similar.) Also the 5607 bridge washers and 725 hex nut. Thank you for c...
