Any thoughts?

Look in Mac's catalog, The sell a unit that uses bolts to push the spokes straight. I made one and it works great. No slidehamer knocking the spoke loose.

Thank you...

The Model A mechanics handbook walks you throu the process and how to set them up so rears take most o...

The front right break rod hits the front tire durring a right turn. By a lot!! It also rubs against the running board support. It is now on the outside of it. I'm suspect that the support is from a car, not a truck. Are they different? When I pull a string between the two points the rod attaches to ...
