Thanks Kim, yes I was kind of leaning in that direction!

Thanks Kim, do you use the ringed nails like in the photo above, or the wire clips that come with the panels. I am wondering whether to take the wire clips off and replace with the nails and sockets from Snyders as per original.

Jeff

Hi Kim,

Do the plastic ones hold OK? Where did you get them from?

Thanks

Jeff

Thanks Neil, not sure what the solution is. The wire clips are too loose if you just push them into the holes. The only thing I can think off is to turn some brass inserts to reduce the hole diameter so the clips are tighter when they go in but there will be some trial and error to get the correct s...

Hi,
Would anyone know of a source for the female door panel fasteners that mount in the door like in the pic below. I need about 25 of them but haven't been able to locate anyone that sells them. Thanks

Jeff

Thanks Guys, yep, thought it was a long shot! The log splitter idea may be an option, Thanks Kim.

Thanks Neil, yes, if I have no luck I will just have to get the heavy hammers and heating torch out. The worst thing will be to try and take the sag out of it as the flanges are quite light and wont take a lot of load from a hydraulic jack. And I would have to straighten it before I weld it up as th...

Hi, I am looking for the rear cross member for an 88A platform bed with the 4 stake pockets. I think the part number is AA-88097-B - see pictures below. Mine has about a 2" sag across it which has split the lower flange and it is pretty beat up. I have repaired all my other cross members with h...

Hi Bud,
Would you have a spare wheel carrier frame for a 28/29 platform bed, the Y type that hangs under the frame at the rear. Mine is possibly an 88A or 185 A bed ( I think it may be a mixture!) but even if you have the hinges or a catch bolt that would be good.

Thanks

Jeff

Thanks Kevin, may have found one - just waiting to hear, but will let you know if it does not eventuate.

Hi, I am looking for the garnish molding for a '29 82-A cab - the one that goes along the top of the door panel at the base of the window that has with the raised grab handle as in pic below. I need one for the drivers side door which is the reverse from the photo. 20190616_190949.jpg Thanks Jeff

Thanks Neil, didn't occur to me they were on the underside which is why I did not see them in any photos.

Many thanks, I will put them on!

Hi all, I am puzzled by the purpose of the two strips that are supposed to be riveted to the frame of the sun visor. They do not seem to serve any purpose that I can see - do I need them?? I could understand them being useful if they went outside the cover to help hold in place but that does not see...

I have been using an impact screwdriver - when you hit it with a hammer it causes the head to turn - theoretically. One problem is with the doors , they are relatively light so you cannot hit too hard. And on a few screws it has sheared the heads off. I have tried the heating and cooling , soaking i...
