Looking good.
Do you clean the metal and treat before you weld in the reinforcement?

My only experience with worm drives is with winches and various farm and construction machinery. Most of them are designed to resist being driven by turning the output shaft. In other words, the winch resists being spooled by pulling on the cable. Therefore, a clutch or coupling is included for the...

Hey guys, Been poking around in the forum for this but can't seem to find it. Looks like 600 x 20 is the tire for a 1930 dual wheel but what tread pattern is preferred? I'm looking at Coker sku# 761399 but I've no idea. I've clicked add to cart a half a dozen times but keep chickening out. Don't wa...

Personally... forget about setting up and using any kind of trailer. The standard AA's were not designed to be pulling a trailer. Just getting a hitch on it will be a bear. If you really want to impress people and show them what these trucks are capable of just load the platform up with really heav...

I think he meant Brake arms.

I called the machine shops in my area that do grinding...I found one that has done this type of work before. They specialize in GE Locomotive wheel and braking assemblies. He said the size (14") is not a factor, LOL! :lol: Just found this while looking for other brake info: "Model A Ford ...

Air brakes are not applied by springs and held off by air. All air brakes are pressure applied. Hitting the brake pressure applies air to the service brakes. Incorporated in modern trucks is an emergency brake that is spring applied and held off by air, but this is for emergencies and parking only....

No...

No way with that difference, I do have another trailer though. but compared to this trailer its huge, 30 to 40ft trailer. Pintle trailer ...
