Any suggestions for getting 40 Ford 1/2 T PU X member support brace, passenger side Part # 78-4048 or 49? Don't know if passenger side is 5048 or 8049). Drake no longer makes them.
Thanks, Jack
Carb has lip on air horn to help keep air cleaner on, maybe for 48-53 truck or car. Carb on '40 Ford PU with 59AB, starts, runs great but has a little miss/roughness at speed and uses a LOT of gas. How much bigger than a #50? Thanks, Jack - Bryan, Tx.
I'm replacing front hub on this PU and need help on best way to save old drum. I understand the drum can be bent etc if not done right.
Also, how to include an image on my ID and these messages. Thank you.
'40 PU lining kit from Obsolete Ford in Oklahoma thicker than original apparently to accommodate expected older drum wear. So turned new US made drums 0.015" to get on. Works great.
1st time poster so bear with me.
Bringing '40 Ford 1/2 ton PU back to life after 10+ years non-runner, stored in garage. Has after mkt wheels, P195/65r 14 tires which look cool but not practical for a driver. Banjo 3rd member marking is 9 34 indicating 3:78 ratio. Need to verify to get more...
Want copy of efv8 club book on flathead pickups. Mine went mia. It is well illustrated with details of each model. Think it covers '32 to '53. Thanks, jack
