Red tubes
Just curious; when was the last red rubber inner tube? I wanted to know how old the Goodyear tube in my tire is.

Re: worm drive drive shaft
Make sure you don't use a gear oil with EP additives, it will destroy you bronze gear in no time.

Re: What happens when a flat occurs
When the rim lip and ring are in good shape there is no reason to fear these rims. That being said, years ago I connected a snap on connector to a six-foot hose connected to my inflator; then you can stand behind or to the side when you inflate the tire.

Re: oil for worm drive rear end
I use 600 w steam oil. Whatever you do DO NOT USE any oil with ep additives, this will destroy your bronze worm gear.

Re: locked up rusty transmission
Why not just replace the transmission (there are plenty of them out there)?

Re: POWER STEERING
Find a '73 Chevy power steering unit. These have a valve operated by the steering arm which activates the steering ram. You need to make a bracket for the pump and line it up with the water pump/fanbelt. You need to modify the linkage between the steering arm and the front spindle. Bolt the ram to t...

How much weight?
A few years ago I had a friend who used a '31 AA flatbed in his cement block plant. He would regularly load 15000 pounds and drive the blocks a few miles to delivery. The loaded bed sat squarely on the axles, the steering was a little squirrely and it took a couple blocks to start slowing down but t...

Re: Tires
High-pressure tires are compared to "low" pressure tires by doubling the last number and subtracting this from the first number; viz: 32x6 would be a six-inch would tire on a 20" RIM.

Re: Windows and window tint
I think the window tinting would look cool, along with dingle-balls hanging from the front window, lowered front end and a plastic Jesus staring out the front windshield.............

Re: Warford Temperature
The Warford makes " lot of noise" because it's about worn out. You can replace the bearings but that wont help much. The only other way to restore it to it's original "quiet" state would be to hard-chrome the gears back to specs. My Warford makes little noise and will push my exp...

Re: High speed rear axle
Make SURE you do not use any oil with EP additives when you fill the rear end otherwise you will destroy your bronze worm in just a few miles, (I know, I did it...........).

Re: warford 2023 counter gear cluster
No, new Warfords did not "make noise". The reason that most Warford transmissions are noisy is because the gear faces wear over the years. Replacing the bearings will usually quiet them some but to get the transmission back to original quiet sound you have to hard-chrome the gear faces bac...

Re: how do you shift a warford while moving?
With mine I reach shifting speed (40-45), throw out the clutch then shift immediately into OD. The trans oil temp changes after warms up so shifting pattern/timing will change. One truck I had required immediate double-clutching (no pause) then shove it into od.
