hi take a look on ford truck enthuist forums in 1947 and older . i just done a search and theres alot of information . i will bring one tread back on top of the list .

https://www.universaltire.com/truck-and-military/truck/700-20-bf-goodrich-silvertown-blackwall-tire.html i put 2 of those on my front ,drives very good.

usely an oval with 4 numbers close to the bead ,indicating week and year .

hi really like following along ,keep up the nice work ! the large suger camp here started tapping this week . they have 10 guys tapping to be ready for march.

theres one problem with putting them mecanical , they pop out of gear in rough roads .i think mecanical 2 speed had a detent to hold them in place . its not that bad but it happens !

nice job !

wish i could help ,but i got the same problem . if you do find some let me know . i will maybe try to repair mine ,tired of having the door rattle .

just in case someone missed !!!

hi ! 1942 ford truck looking for a good driver side door latch .

repaired my leaking rear left wheel yesterday ,only to find that my cap on the master cylinder is more like 1 5/8 . i had a friend measure the old one ,but he was not around so its a rough guess . i was looking for 1 1/4 ,but i need bigger !!!

not sure the kit comes with the cap ! last pictures shows a brass looking cap, but its not seen on the other pictures . i was meaning to phone him ,but been quit busy lately.

hi all ! i found my old mastercylinder and the cap aluminuin . not sure i can modify it . treads are kinda bass - turd . 1 1/4 by 16 treads . i would really like to find a metal cap . while doing some research i found a military guy who sells a kit . not sure it would fit !

hi gary ! i was thinking of using a hydralic clutch reservoir . not really going for the old school look ,just something with a quick glance i see the oil level. i,m going to see if i can find my old master cylinder and maybe tap it ! especially since my truck emptied it brake fluid in the rear...

thanks steve ,been busy lately but i will be checking this out soon !
