Anyhow getting back into my 29 AA, got the frame pretty well stripped down but need to know how to remove the brake cross shaft... I noticed it wasn't like a standard A where it bolts to the bottom of the frame, it goes thru the sides... also i noticed my rear leaf spring packs don't have the same n...

Re: 30 stake fenders

What's the difference between the 30 style and 29 style front fenders? My 30 is an early year model and has the 30 style cab, but not sure on the fenders. Both fenders are in very poor condition but most likely salvagable. I guess what Im trying to say is I need new fenders! I'm not to sure I want ...

Re: 1929 Express info

its got a 28/29 cab on it and like he said the 29 rims. Also has 28/29 headlights and hood, but those can be interchainged. it also looks like hes got the car front axle, not the later beefier one. judging by those features im sure its pretty safe to say its a 29... paperwork i cant help ya there as...

Re: Install wheel ?

an idea for remote inflation is find something that clips/clamps on the inner tube nozzle (possible old bike pump nozzle?) then run an old airhose to a 1/4" 90* turn water shutoff valve, then the rest to the air compressor. then u have a hand operated valve that can be full on or full off. coul...

Re: Install wheel ?

well ive heard and been told to have a shop install them (one that installs large truck tires) as these are whats referred to as "split rims" they are very dangerous when filling initially because that lock ring can come off (it is the outer part of the rim the tire bead sits on/pushes up ...

Re: express bed fender , left

It is my opinion that , if a guy won't give you a price, you should just walk away. He is just on a fishing expedition, hoping for a big score, but probably does not really need to sell the item. yea sometimes they do that if they have an idea of how rare they are but have no idea on a price. Other...
