Yea i was figuring less than $50 but i didnt wanna feel outa line by offering that.

by buying i mean the entire leaf assembly (as if i pulled it off the pivot shaft and front shackle myself) I would have to pull these off a frame myself so im gonna go on the low side of a price since i gotta do the work. i dont plan to sell mine. I'm trying to get 2 good spring assemblies to use......

Quick question: Whats a good/fair deal on a rear springpack? (no clamshell parts or anything just the leafs and ubolts and associated clamps)

Awesome drawing Neil, im wondering if for the hour glass shape is to trap whatever grease/slip plate/ lubricant between the leafs so as they wear it eventually will squish out. When i disassembled my rear leafs i had an odd amount of black/grey powdery dust trapped between them. Kinda resembled grap...

Bob

yup, once i saw the end of it thats exactly what the gizmo is.

oooh purdy

did you sandblast and paint the frame too?

what did you use for lubrication between the leafs?

Rule One of Economics is that "the value of an object is whatever someone is prepared to pay for it" (and is therefore entirely subjective) Therefore the aim is to bring this vehicle to the attention of that person who wants it enough, and then (because this is a luxury purchase) to hold ...

Whoops i shoulda been more specific about the gizmo: i meant in the pic you titled " I removed the floorboards for easy battery access" its the black thing above the pedals and steering columb.

Well as a go over some final areas that need attention before sandblasting i find more and more. I posted over at fordbarn about what if anything can be done to re strengthen/repair front crossmembers and some say certain repairs they said mine would be much easier to find a replacement. I think i n...

Im not sure but the rear springs look different...by that i mean the whole setup of how the axle mounts to them etc. Just seem kinda thin/lacking leafs too... Obviously the ammeter isnt correct nor is the LED sidemarker light or reflector by the seat. Im unsure of how they did the wiring and switche...

Yea they are hard to remove. Do you know what size the rivets are?

Ill see if i can get some pics today

Well after trying off and on while soaking with PB blaster for a few weeks now i still cant get the rivets out of the ends to get the dang shaft outa the frame. I then noticed in one spot of it right near the drivers side rail the shaft has rusted/pitted about 1/4 of the shaft size away...is it even...

Stakebed, I assume that "spring pack" actually means the spring leaves and nothing else. An original (off the assembly line) AA had the same set of spring leaves from about 4-28 thru 3-31. If the springs were replaced or overhauled sometime in the last 80 years, then they may not be the s...
