Thank you all for advice! Excellent information.
I’m going to attempt re-arching and see how that goes - I’ll post an update in the coming week on how it went.
Need some advice.
Just took the front leaf spring apart on a 29 truck with not much tension (maybe an inch?). There is a total of 12 leafs! With the middle spring square on the ends - maybe a replacement? They appear to be in good shape with no cracks - although the center bolt broke...
Thank you all! Here’s some close up pictures.
Low sliding gear appears the most worn looking at the top rectangle more then 1/2 length - others around 1/4 length. Replace all or just the low sliding gear? Or if you need to change one then you need to change all?
Started restoration on a 29 truck. The block has two cracks valve to cylinder - I’ve found a replacement used block. I’d like to move parts over to the new block. What should I be concerned with?
