Keep in mind all the weight of the rear of the truck will wear the top clamp and top of the axle. I found a couple better fitting ones but still needed to build a couple areas up with weld and filed down to fit tighter. if there is still excessive play you can file the flats of the clamps down a bi...

The AA brake pins are the same as model A pins

Thanks for posting this, i explored the possibility of replacing the cork seal with an o ring on my pinion but didn't have any luck finding one let alone the ring and sure enough it leaks, I'll be prepared the next time

Stunning! I can't wait to see more

I am using the V8 clutch disc and pressure plate. Smoother and stronger. I've heard good things about those V8 clutches, is any kind of a modification necessary to install one? I had a sedan with an original clutch plate, no doubt relined at some point, it was somewhat unforgiving, a little too res...

Thats engaging, would you be willing to share your source for the clutch disk material? I gave up trying to locate a disk with AA specs and installed the A model disk.

I've got 2 available if anyone's interested

this is one photograph of a AA brake pedal next to a clutch pedal and one more by it's self, i could not find a trace of a part number on this one but the one I have in the truck does have a AA part number.

TC is for Twin City. That is, St. Paul, MN
How about that, thanks guys,

Can anyone tell me what this number is stamped on the middle crossmember on the drivers side?

Just curious, anyone know why A has thrust bearing on top and AA on bottom? Old one ton Chevys and GMCs I used to work on had them on bottom like AA. (Sorry not a very good picture) Good question, pretty sure they can be installed either on top or on the bottom (I think I've done both) but as you s...

Filing by hand seems like it would be almost impossible to get it completely round again. Any info the tool or where the picture came from? Searching Perch tool does not result in anything useful that I found. The picture came from this web sight, I think the tool changed hands over this sight, I w...

I welded mine over head and filed them, not as easy as welding them inverted but I didn't have to take the truck apart to do it. You could remove them and have a machine shop bring them back to spec then bolt them back on with high grade bolts, getting them off is a challlenge. perch tool.jpg or you...

Talk about provenance, that's great, nice technique with the hone too, thanks for sharing those.
